CHAPTER 18 Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages
Auto get mail with notification
You can set up the VersaMail application to automatically get new e-mail messages and download
them to your handheld with the auto get feature.
If auto get downloads any new messages, your handheld lets you know with a blinking light or a
beep. And a list with the number of new messages retrieved appears on the Reminders screen.
The auto get feature downloads only the first 3KB of each message. You can tap the More button
on the message screen to download the entire message.
Auto get recognizes any filter criteria
you set up for downloading messages. Messages that don’t
meet these filter criteria are not downloaded during an auto get. You need to turn off all filters and
manually retrieve these messages.
Scheduling auto get mail
You can set up different schedules for each of your e-mail accounts, but you can set up only one
schedule for each account. For example, if you set up a schedule to get mail on weekdays for your
Yahoo account, you can’t set up a separate schedule for weekends for that account.
The auto get feature may not work with your specific VPN connection
. It doesn’t work for SSL
connections, or if you have set up the security preferences on your handheld to encrypt databases
on the handheld.
Did You Know?
If more than one
scheduled auto get
happens at the same time
(for example, for two
separate e-mail
accounts), auto get
retrieves messages in the
following order:
1. Any past-due auto get
(for example, a retry of an
earlier failed auto get).
2. Current retrievals
according to the order of
e-mail accounts (#1, #2,
and so on).
Did You Know?
For some nonsupported
connection types, the
auto get mail option
doesn’t appear on the
Options menu; for others,
if you try to set up an auto
get schedule, an error
message appears.
