Get unread mail (IMAP account only)

are downloaded to your Inbox, including messages you have already read.

Delete messages on server

To delete messages on your provider’s mail server

when they are deleted in the VersaMail application, check the Delete messages
on the server when they are deleted in VersaMail box.

Leave mail on server (POP account only)

To get email on your handheld but

leave it on the server so you can view it later on your computer, check the Leave
mail on server box.

Did You Know?

The POP protocol does
not support retrieval of
unread mail only from the
server. If you have a POP
email account, the
VersaMail application
downloads all messages
from the server
regardless of whether
you have read them (for
example, on your desktop
or on the web), and
regardless of whether
this box is checked.

Tip

If you choose to leave
mail on the server and,
for example, read
messages from your
Yahoo! account on your
handheld, the messages
are still visible the next
time you check your
Inbox on Yahoo.com.
