Applications: Mail

Introduction

The Mail application enables you to manage your e-mail while away from your desk. The
key to Mail is that it truly synchronizes the mail in your desktop e-mail application with the
mail on your SPT 1500 terminal.

For example, if you delete messages from your Palm

Mail, your next HotSync

®

operation

also deletes the messages from your desktop e-mail application — so you never have to delete
messages twice. Similarly, if you read a message on your SPT 1500 terminal and leave it in
your inbox, your next HotSync operation marks it as read on your desktop e-mail.

With Mail, you can:

t

Use your SPT 1500 terminal to send and/or retrieve e-mail messages from your
desktop e-mail application.

t

View, delete, file and/or reply to incoming mail.

t

Create outgoing messages as well as drafts of messages that you can complete later.

t

Create simple or complex filters, which allow you to decide the type of e-mail that
your SPT 1500 terminal retrieves from your desktop e-mail application.

Setting Up Mail on the Desktop

Before you use Mail for the first time, your desktop e-mail application should be up and
running. You must also set up the Palm

Desktop software for use with your desktop e-mail

application.
