Working with URLs
You can tap a URL in a received message to view the web page or file associated
with the URL. Tapping the URL opens a browser window (using the default
browser on your handheld) to view the page or file. This feature works only with
certain types of browsers; if you do not have the right type of browser installed on
your handheld and set as the default, you cannot open URLs in e-mail messages.
You can also tap an embedded e-mail address to open a new message screen with
the address in the To field.
Depending on whether the received message is displayed in HTML or plain text
format, URLs and e-mail addresses appear in slightly different forms, as follows:
Working with attachments
You can easily download, view, and send attachments with e-mail messages.
HTML
URLs and e-mail addresses appear as blue underlined text.
Plain text
URLs appear as any text beginning with “http://” or “www.” You
cannot view the page or file associated with a URL that does not
begin with “http://” or “www” in a plain text message.
E-mail addresses appear in the form
“username@mailservice.com” (or other three-letter extension such
as .net, .org, and so on).
