CHAPTER 4
Synchronizing E-mail Between the
Handheld and the Desktop
IMPORTANT You must have a Windows computer to synchronize e-mail between
your handheld and your computer.
To manage your e-mail on your desktop as well as on your handheld, you can
synchronize an e-mail account on the handheld with an e-mail application on the
desktop. You can use many popular e-mail applications, called clients, such as
Microsoft Outlook, Eudora, Lotus Notes, Outlook Express, or any other e-mail
clients that use MAPI.
