CHAPTER 15 Sending and Receiving Email Messages
Incoming and outgoing mail server settings Check with your company’s system administrator to
obtain these settings.
With a corporate email account, you may be able to access the following types of mail servers,
among others:
• Microsoft Exchange
• IBM Lotus Domino
• Sun iPlanet
VPNs
If you want to access email on your handheld using your corporate email 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
pass through the firewall to gain access to the mail server.
You need to set up a VPN to access corporate email in either of the following 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 system 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 email with accounts that use a VPN
connection.
