Synchronizing an existing username

If you plan to synchronize your Palm Tungsten T3 handheld with an existing
username by performing a HotSync operation, you must do so before you enter
your e-mail account information in the VersaMail application. If you enter the e-
mail account information first and then synchronize your handheld to an existing
username, the e-mail account information you entered is overwritten.

Upgrading a MultiMail/VersaMail database

If you have previously used a Palm personal e-mail application such as MultiMail
SE or MultiMail Deluxe, or an earlier version of the VersaMail application, you can
upgrade your e-mail database for use with the VersaMail 2.6 application.

To upgrade an existing e-mail database for use with the VersaMail application:

1.

Perform a HotSync operation with a user profile that contains the existing
e-mail database. To do so, tap the HotSync icon

, and then select a profile that

contains an e-mail database from the displayed list of users.

2.

Tap the VersaMail icon

.

3.

Tap Yes to accept the upgrade.

Setting up and managing e-mail accounts

With the VersaMail application, you can set up accounts on your handheld to
access e-mail accounts from providers such as Earthlink or Yahoo; to access your
corporate e-mail with the appropriate mail server configuration (see

“Using a

corporate e-mail account”

later in this chapter for more information); or to

synchronize e-mail messages with a desktop e-mail application.

You can add up to eight e-mail accounts on your handheld.
