5. Tap OK (alternately, press Function + Enter ), and then tap OK (or press
Function + Enter ) again. If there is an existing service connection, it is
disconnected and the new connection is initiated. The VersaMail application
sends and checks for any new e-mail using the new connection.
When you exit the VersaMail application, the new service disconnects. When you
reopen the application, the e-mail account you selected (My Earthlink in this
example) continues to connect using the new connection (Earthlink GPRS in this
example) until you either select a new service or deselect the Always connect using
check box. If you deselect the Always connect using check box, the e-mail account
(My Earthlink) connects using the default handheld service (My VPN in this
example).
The Always connect using check box changes the connection service for the
selected e-mail account only. You must follow the preceding procedure for each
e-mail account whose connection you want to switch from the default connection
on your handheld.
Troubleshooting account access problems
Occasionally you may experience problems using an e-mail account after you set
it up. If you followed the account setup procedures described in “Setting up and
managing e-mail accounts” earlier in this chapter but experience problems using
the account, you may need to verify that the account complies with your e-mail
provider’s requirements. See Appendix B for troubleshooting information for
account access problems.
Getting, sending, and managing e-mail
Getting and sending e-mail on your handheld is easy and helps you keep your
business and personal life organized. You can get and send e-mail by simply
tapping one button on the handheld.
You can manage the messages in your e-mail accounts by moving messages
between folders, deleting old e-mail messages individually or in groups, and
marking messages as read or unread.
