CHAPTER 15 Sending and Receiving Email Messages
Incoming and outgoing mail server settings Check with your company’s system administrator to
obtain these settings.
With a corporate email account, you may be able to access the following types of mail servers,
among others:
Microsoft Exchange
•IBM Lotus Domino
Sun iPlanet
VPNs
If you want to access email on your handheld using your corporate email account, you may need
to set up a virtual private network (VPN) on your handheld. A VPN enables you to log in to your
corporate mail server through the company’s firewall (security layer). Without a VPN, you cannot
pass through the firewall to gain access to the mail server.
You need to set up a VPN to access corporate email in either of the following situations:
Your company’s wireless local area network (LAN) is located outside the firewall.
Your company’s wireless LAN is located inside the firewall, but you are trying to access the
network from outside the firewall (for example, from a public location or at home).
Check with your company’s system administrator to see if a VPN is required to access the
corporate network.
The auto get mail
with notification feature in the VersaMail application may not work with a VPN
connection. Also, you cannot use scheduled sending retry
of email with accounts that use a VPN
connection.
