CHAPTER 16 Sending and Receiving Email Messages
Cont’d
Unread Messages Only For IMAP accounts only, select whether to download
all messages to your handheld, or unread messages only. By default, the box is
unchecked, meaning that all messages are downloaded. For POP accounts, this
box does not appear on the screen.
Download attachments Select whether to download attachments when you
retrieve new messages. By default, the box is checked; if you uncheck it, only
the body text of any message containing an attachment is downloaded to your
handheld.
Mail from the last X Days Set how many days’ worth of email should be
downloaded.
Max Message Size (KB) Enter the maximum message size that can be
downloaded to your handheld—from 1 to 5000KB. The smaller the maximum
size, the faster the download, but you must use the More button
to download
any messages over that size. On the other hand, choosing a larger size means
that more messages can be completely downloaded automatically, but
downloading takes longer.
Format of Incoming Messages Select HTML or Plain Text. If you select HTML,
any email messages sent as HTML are displayed on your handheld with basic
HTML formatting intact. If you select plain text, all messages are received as
plain text only, regardless of the format in which they were sent. The default
is HTML.
Synchronize Outbox Folder Check the box to synchronize messages in
your handheld’s Outbox with messages on your computer during the next
synchronization. If the box is unchecked, your Outbox is not included when
you synchronize, so messages in your handheld’s Outbox are not sent.

Did You Know?
The POP protocol does
not support retrieval of
unread mail only from the
server. If you have a POP
email account, the
VersaMail application
downloads all messages
from the server
regardless of whether
you have read them (for
example, on your desktop
or on the web).
Did You Know?
The actual message size
you can download may
be smaller than 5000KB,
because some message
space is necessary for
transferring the message
over the Internet.
