CHAPTER 18 Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages
With a corporate e-mail account, you can access the following types of mail servers, among
others:
Microsoft Exchange
Lotus Domino
Sun iPlanet
VPNs
If you want to access e-mail on your handheld using your corporate e-mail 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
break through the firewall to gain access to the mail server.
You need to set up a VPN to access corporate e-mail in either of the following two 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 server 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 e-mail with accounts that use a VPN
connection.
