CHAPTER 15 Sending and Receiving Email Messages
Testing your new account
After you finish setting up a new email account, the Inbox of the account you just created is
displayed. You can test whether the email account is set up and working properly by getting
messages. If you want to synchronize email on your handheld with email on your computer, you
need to configure this account on your computer.

Set additional outgoing mail options:
a. Select any of the following:
Port Number The default is 25, the
port number most SMTP servers
use. If you are not sure about the
correct port number, check with
your system administrator.
Use Secure Connection To send
outgoing mail over a secure (Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL) connection, check
the Use Secure Connection box.
Authentication Check the box if the outgoing server (SMTP) requires ESMTP
authentication. Check with your system administrator before selecting this
option. If you select this option, username and password fields appear. These
fields are already filled in based on the account information you entered. In
most cases, the information displayed is correct; however, occasionally your
authentication username and/or password is different from your account
