Before you can use Internet Explorer (the Internet browser) and Inbox (the e-mail
application) on your netpad, you need to set up certain details. This section covers
some general questions that people ask about using e-mail and the Internet, and

to know before you start setting up the netpad, and then provide step-by-step
instructions.
7.4.1.1 Using The Internet On netpad

both, of the following methods:
Connecting By Telephone Line To A Remote Mailbox

ling your company's service provider or office mailbox.
What to do next…

network administrator to find out whether you can make a ‘remote’ (dial-up) con-
nection to your mailbox. See “Types Of E-mail Account” on page 76 to continue.
