2. Features of the Communicator E-Mail Client

The communicator's e-mail client displays e-mail messages in the same familiar way as normal PC-based e-mail
clients. User can see all the messages in the remote mailbox and select only the important ones, new messages, or all
messages to be retrieved in the communicator. There is an easy Retrieve mail command that can be used to check, and

optionally also to download, new e-mail. It is also possible to select whether or not attachments are downloaded
along with the messages when the IMAP4 protocol is used.

Received e-mail messages can be read and replied to also when offline, which saves connection time. Replies and new
e-mail messages can be sent either immediately upon the next connection to the e-mail account or when they are
explicitly requested to be sent.

Attachments are supported and downloaded attachments can be viewed on the communicator. Initially supported
attachment types are marked with (*) in Table 1. Other attachment types in Table 1 are supported if the appropriate
application or converter is installed in the device. New attachment types can be supported via add-on applications
installed in the communicator. Downloaded attachments can be also saved to files, and transferred to a PC for
viewing. The overall use of attachments is rather limited by the small disk space and amount of free memory. A
memory card can be used to expand the available disk space for messaging.
