Most of the standards above are supported by
Internet Service Providers and many corporate
environments. Sony Ericsson P1 is supplied with
Internet and email wizards which help users easily
configure an email account. OTA (Over The Air)
configuration of email and ISP accounts is
supported.
Sony Ericsson P1 supports SSL and TLS
encryption.
Automatic polling can be used so that email is
automatically collected and presented in the Inbox.
Controls are provided to filter messages based on
size, enabling cost and download time to be
managed.
Another option enables only email headers to be
presented in the inbox. Headers are quick to
download. The user may read and select headers
and request the message to be downloaded if
necessary.
If IMAP4 is used you can enable the IDLE
command to keep connected to the email server.
This allows the server to push new messages
directly to the Sony Ericsson P1 as they arrive.
Email transmission is performed in the background,
making it possible to perform other messaging
functions during transmission.
A list of recently used addresses are available
when creating a message. Sony Ericsson P1 allows
distribution lists to be created and sender ID
information is sent with message alerts.
Sony Ericsson P1 can send any type of
attachment, including the following:
• Pictures
• Video clips
• Audio files
• SIS files
• JAR/JAD files
• Themes
• vObjects (vCalendar, vCard, vNote, vBookmark)

Attachments may be viewed using the preinstalled
viewers for Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel,
Microsoft PowerPoint and Adobe™ Acrobat™
Reader™ (PDF). See “Quickoffice™” on page 24
for more information.
A signature may be set up so that essential details
are automatically copied to the end of each
outgoing email.
The supplied Sony Ericsson PC Suite enables
email to be synchronized with Microsoft Outlook
and Lotus Notes®. During synchronization, new
email from the computer is transferred in to the
corresponding 'synchronized email account' inbox
on Sony Ericsson P1. Messages and replies written
using this account on Sony Ericsson P1 are
transferred and sent via the computer.
Web based email can, of course, be accessed
using the Sony Ericsson P1 browser.
Email folders
Messaging accounts have the following folders:
Inbox, Outbox, SIM, Draft and Sent. Additional
folders may be created, see “Local folders” on
page 22 for more information.
Local folders
To improve the organization of your folders you can
create more folders locally on Sony Ericsson P1.
Local folders are only visible in the Messaging
application. Local folders cannot be created on a
Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™).
Push email
Push email is a method of 'pushing' or forwarding
email to mobile devices as soon as a message
reaches the email server. These solutions may also
include calendar and contacts synchronization.
Push email solutions allow email messages to be
delivered in the background in the same way as
SMS or MMS messages.
