Using Palm™ VersaMail™ Personal E-mail Software

186

When you exit the VersaMail application, the new service disconnects. When you
reopen the application, the e-mail account you selected (My Earthlink in this
example) continues to connect using the new connection (Earthlink GSM in this
example) until you either select a new service or deselect the Always connect using
check box. If you deselect the Always connect using check box, the e-mail account
(My Earthlink) connects using the default handheld service (My GPRS in this
example).

The Always connect using check box changes the connection service for the
selected e-mail account only. You must follow the preceding procedure for each
e-mail account whose connection you want to switch from the default connection
on your handheld.

Getting, sending, and managing e-mail

Getting and sending e-mail on your handheld is easy and helps you keep your
business and personal life organized. You can get and send e-mail by simply
tapping one button on the handheld.

You can manage the messages in your e-mail accounts by moving messages
between folders, deleting old e-mail messages individually or in groups, and
marking messages as read or unread.

This section describes how to do the following:

Get and send e-mail for your e-mail accounts

View and send e-mail attachments, such as text or Microsoft Word documents,
wirelessly

Getting and reading e-mail

You can get e-mail subjects only—the message size, author, and subject—or you
can get entire messages immediately. If you choose to get message subjects only
and want to read a full message, you can get more of the message.

Choosing the e-mail account and displaying the Inbox

To view the e-mail in an account, you must switch to that account and then get the
e-mail. For example, if you want to collect and view the e-mail from your Yahoo
account, you switch to the account created to retrieve e-mail from your Yahoo
account.

To display an account and its Inbox:

1.

In your Inbox or another folder screen, press Function

+ Menu

.

2.

Select Accounts.
