15 Internet Applications

In order to use these programs, you will need access to a local network which is connected to the
Internet. See the section Network in the Settings tab for details on setting up the connection
parameters and the choosing the hardware connection.

15.1 E-Mail

This is a standard e-mail application which allows for multiple accounts and POP3 or IMAP mail

boxes. The Network application in the settings
tab must be configured and a connection to the
network must be made (network icon in the
status bar on the bottom of the screen) in order
for this program to send and receive e-mails.
This application can handle only a limited
amount of embedded HTML in the message
field. Your e-mail server settings for incoming
and outgoing mail can be set to the same as
those of your home computer.

15.2 Opera™

Browser

This is an Internet browser application allowing
you to access and display web pages. The
Network application in the Settings tab must be
configured and a connection to the network must
be made (network icon in the status bar on the
bottom of the screen) in order to browse web
pages. This browser does not have plug-ins like
desktop computer browsers, thus web pages with
Flash™ animation, Active X™ controls, media,
or PDF files will not display. If it is possible,

Opera™ will ask you if you would like to download the file. You can then open the downloaded
file in an application for that particular file type. Pdf files can for example be viewed with an
included PDF viewer found on the Applications tab. Other files might need to be viewed on your
computer. There is a ? help icon in Opera™ menu bar which explains how to use the application.
