tion and the e-mail service, or you can create a connection using Remote
Networking, and then set up the e-mail service in Inbox.
After you have created the connection and e-mail service, use Inbox to
connect to your service provider and retrieve your mail.
To connect to your service provider from Inbox
1. On the Services menu, tap the connection you would like to dial.
2. Type your user name, password, and domain name, if necessary.
3. Tap Dial Properties if you need to modify a location or choose a
different one.
4. Tap Connect. A message will appear to show you the status of your
connection. When your connection is established, you can send and
receive mail.
You can connect to your e-mail account and download messages to your HP Jornada even
if your desktop PC (partner) e-mail service is not Outlook or Exchange (for instance, if your
e-mail service is Lotus Notes). However, you can only synchronize with your desktop PC
mail if your desktop PC uses Outlook or Exchange as its mail client.
Inbox settings
When you connect to a mail server, the messages on your device and mail
server are synchronized: new messages or message headers are downloaded
to the HP Jornada Inbox folder, messages in the HP Jornada Outbox folder
are sent, and messages that have been deleted from your Inbox are removed
from the server.
You can set Inbox to download all your messages or only new message
headers to the Inbox folder. By default, only messages from the last 3 days
will be downloaded.
Downloading only message headers saves storage space and requires less
connect time. By default, only message headers and the first 100 lines of text
are downloaded, and the original messages remain on the mail server. If you
read a message header and decide that you want the full copy, tap the Get
Full Copy button on the Inbox toolbar. The full text of the message will be
retrieved the next time you connect.
