In Mail, you can do the following:
■
View, delete, file, and reply to incoming mail.
■
Create outgoing e-mail items and drafts of e-mail items.
■
Create simple or complex filters, which allow you to decide the
type of e-mail that your handheld retrieves from your desktop
E-mail application.
■
Use your handheld to send and retrieve e-mail items from your
desktop E-Mail application via the cradle or infrared
communications.
Installing Mail
Your handheld supports a number of desktop E-Mail applications for
Microsoft Windows, such as:
■
Microsoft Exchange (version 5.0 or higher)
■
QUALCOMM Eudora (version 3.0.1 or higher)
■
Lotus cc:Mail (6.0 or higher)
■
Microsoft Outlook 97 (or higher)
■
Microsoft Outlook Express
■
Netscape Communicator (version 4.5 or higher)
You can see the full list of supported applications when you install
and set up Mail. If your desktop E-Mail application does not appear
on the list, you may still be able to manage your desktop E-Mail
application from your handheld by means of special connection
software, called a conduit, that lets you synchronize your desktop
E-Mail application and your handheld. Contact the vendor of your
E-Mail application or visit the web site
http://www.palm.com
for more
information.
Note:
The following instructions assume you already installed Palm
Desktop software on your computer. If you have not installed
the Palm Desktop software, you must install it now. See the
Getting Started
guide that came with your handheld for
instructions.
