MESSAGING

You can use the Messaging application to exchange email, text messages (SMS), and multimedia
messages (MMS) with other mobile devices and email addresses that support these forms of
messaging. You can also exchange instant messages (IM) with Pocket MSN. Before you use your
smartphone’s messaging features, consult Verizon Wireless for pricing and availability.

Setting up an email account

Before you set up your email account(s) on your smartphone, you must determine which type of
account(s) you want to access, as the steps vary for each account type. The following gives an

Enables you to wirelessly synchronize your email and other information directly

with the information stored on a Microsoft Exchange Server 2003.

your email and other information with the information stored on your computer (Verizon Wireless
