Setting up email
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
•
Before you use your smartphone to
send or receive messages, consult your
network operator for pricing and
availability of email services and data
rate plans.
•
Make sure your phone is on and you’re
inside a coverage area before you send
or receive messages.
Entering settings for an email account
Depending on your network operator, your
smartphone may come with the MyMail
personal email service, which you can use
to access one or more email accounts,
already installed. You can also use other
applications on your smartphone to access
the many kinds of email you may use:
corporate, ISP, and web-based (like Gmail
and Yahoo! Mail). Before you can send and
receive email on your smartphone, you
need to decide which type of email
account you want to access. The setup
process is different for each email account
type, so it is very important that you select
the correct type.
