, Email attempts to communicate with your email service
provider to validate your account for sending and receiving mail, using just your
email address and password. This is sufficient for most email services.
Depending on the service provider, you may be asked what kind of email account
you have. If you’re not sure, check the settings in the application you use to send
and receive email on your computer, or ask your email service provider.
If the wizard determines that your service provider requires additional information,
or if you touched
Manual setup
, you’re prompted to enter your email account
details.
The details you enter are different, depending on the email service type. These
details are described in “Changing email account settings” on page 197. Contact
your email service provider for the values required for your account.
If you are adding an Exchange ActiveSync account, you’re prompted to set how
often and how you want to check for new email, how many days or weeks worth of
email to store on your phone, and a number of other options (see “Changing email
account settings” on page 197). You’re also asked whether you want to
synchronize your contacts and calendar from the Exchange ActiveSync server to
your phone. You can change these settings later in the Contacts and Calendar
applications. See “Configuring account sync and display options” on page 115 and
“Synchronizing and displaying calendars” on page 155.
