CHAPTER 3
Setting Up an Exchange
ActiveSync ® Account
To begin using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
®
with the Treo™ 650 smartphone,
an account must be set up in VersaMail
®
. In some cases, you may want to set up a
user’s VersaMail account configuration, but each user can also set up an Exchange
ActiveSync account.
How to set up an Exchange ActiveSync account
Users on a Windows computer can quickly set up an Exchange ActiveSync account
on their computer, and then synchronize the settings to the device. Only one
Exchange ActiveSync account can be set up in VersaMail.
NOTE
Because the VersaMail setup wizard is not available on the Mac, Mac users
must set up an Exchange ActiveSync account in the VersaMail application on their
device.
On a Windows computer
On a Windows computer, setting up an Exchange ActiveSync account is easy using
the VersaMail Account Setup Wizard. The wizard also has features for editing and
deleting accounts as well as setting options for synchronizing email accounts. The
following steps show how to set up an account in the VersaMail Account Setup
Wizard.
To set up an Exchange ActiveSync account (Windows only):
1.
Select an option to set up the email software:
a.
On the Discover Your Device screen of the software installation CD, choose
to set up an account at that time.
b.
Or on the Windows desktop, select Start > Programs > palmOne > VersaMail
Setup.
2.
Select the appropriate username from the drop-down list at the top of the
screen, and then select the option to create a new VersaMail email account. Click
Next.
3.
Select the option to synchronize the device with a mail service from this list, and
then select Exchange ActiveSync. Click Next.
