CHAPTER 18 Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages
Working with root folders
For IMAP accounts, if you want to synchronize e-mail messages on your handheld with messages
on the mail server folder, you need to enter the root folder
for the account on your handheld.
Depending on your e-mail provider, the root folder could be a single folder, or it could be a
subfolder of the Inbox. If this is the case, you need to enter “inbox.<foldername>” as the root
folder.
Check with your e-mail provider to find out the root folder for your IMAP account.
Using Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is a protocol designed to ensure that data you send or receive over a
network or the Internet is secure and authentic. The VersaMail application uses SSL to help
guarantee the secure transmission of e-mail messages that you send or receive. When you set up
an account in the VersaMail application, you are given the option of selecting SSL for incoming
and outgoing mail.
For most e-mail providers that support SSL, you must select SSL for both
incoming and outgoing mail. If you select just one or the other, your messages cannot be sent or
received successfully.
Keep the following in mind regarding SSL:
If you set up an account that uses an SSL connection on Outlook, Outlook Express, or Eudora,
then SSL is supported in the VersaMail conduit when you synchronize
with that account as well.
You cannot use auto get mail with notification
or scheduled sending retry of e-mail with
accounts that use an SSL connection.
