Product Reference Guide
Note:
If you’re setting up an Internet mail account with an ISP (Internet Service
Provider), the ISP must use a POP3 m ail server and an SMTP mail gateway.
For dial-up connections, you’ll require an internal PCMCIA type modem card or
external modem for the PA960. You’ll also need to set up the remote connection
on the PA960 using the Connections program.
For wireless connections, you’ll require an RF card for the PA960. You’ll also
need to set up the remote connection on the PA960 via the
Network
setting.
The software for creating an Internet Mail connection to an ISP is pre-installed on
the PA960.
Setting Up Remote Mail
You can use multiple mail ser-
vices to obtain mail. For each
mail service you will access, first
set up and name each mail
service. If you will use the same
service to connect to different
mailboxes, set up and name each
mailbox connection.
In the InBox on the PA960, tap
Compose
,
Options
, the
Ser-
vices tab
, and then the
Add
button. A setup wizard will walk
you through the steps.
Work Remotely
Mail received via dial-up connection appears in the InBox folder on the PA960,
together with the mail you synchronize with your desktop computer. Messages
received remotely are linked to your mail server rather than to your desktop
computer.
You can work online, which means that you read and respond to messages while
connected to the server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap
Send
, which
saves space on your device.
