Using the AutoAlert E-mail Notification System

The VAIO

®

Action Setup utility enables you to program your computer to notify you when new mail arrives in your e-mail

mailbox. The

Information LED turns red to indicate that new e-mail has arrived. The AutoAlert E-mail Notification

System uses Microsoft

®

Outlook

®

Express software as the default e-mail software. You need an Internet Service Provider

(ISP) and an Internet connection to be set up before using this e-mail notification system.

As an alternative, you can program your AutoAlert E-mail Notification System to have the Information LED indicate when it
has successfully completed the task of connecting to your ISP to receive e-mail. In this case, the Information LED light
indicates that your e-mail account has been successfully accessed, regardless of whether or not you have e-mail. This
feature is supported by the preconfigured e-mail applications listed in the VAIO Action Setup utility.

Note:

The e-mail software you choose to use with the PPK must be set as your default e-mail software.
