Among the types of attachments you can receive are the following handheld
application files:

Address Book entries

Date Book appointments

To Do list items

Memos

NOTE

The maximum message size that you can retrieve is 60KB for the body text

and 2MB total, including attachments. If the attachment is too large, it cannot be
downloaded to the handheld.

To view an attachment:

1.

In the Inbox, tap the message with the attachment.

A paper clip icon appears on the message’s icon if the message has an
attachment that has been downloaded.

If you choose to get messages by subject only, you must tap More for each
downloaded message in order to view the body of the e-mail message plus any
attachments.

If the option Download Attachments is selected in the VersaMail Preferences,
any attachments that do not cause the message to exceed the maximum
message size are downloaded. Otherwise, you see a message showing that the
attachments were too large and asking if you would like to continue
downloading them.

For example, if the maximum message size is 5KB and you download a body of
2KB, then any attachment under 3KB is also downloaded, and any attachment
over 3KB is not. See

“Downloading large attachments”

later in this chapter.
