Mail

The Nokia 9290 Communicator mail system is compliant with Internet standards
SMTP, IMAP4 (rev 1) and POP3.

To be able to receive and send mail, you need to have set up a remote mailbox
service. This service may be offered by an Internet service provider, a system service
provider, or your company.

Tip: If you press Write

mail in the main view of
Messaging and you have not
set up your mail account, you
will be prompted to do so.

Before you can send, receive, retrieve, reply to, and forward mail on your
communicator, you must do the following:

• You must configure an Internet access point (IAP) correctly. See ‘Setting up

your Internet access point’ on page 150.

• You must define your Mail settings correctly. See ‘Mail settings’ on page 188.

Note: Follow the instructions given by your remote mailbox and Internet

service providers.
