Chapter 14 Using Palm™ VersaMail™ Personal E-mail Software
144
Getting started with the VersaMail application
To start using the application, simply press the VersaMail button on your
handheld.
If you are using a Windows computer, the Palm VersaMail HotSync
®
Conduit is
installed automatically when you install the Palm Desktop software. See
“Synchronizing e-mail between the handheld and the desktop” later in this
chapter for information on using the conduit.
Synchronizing an existing username
If you plan to synchronize your Tungsten C handheld with an existing username
by performing a HotSync operation, you must do so before you enter your e-mail
account information in the VersaMail application. If you enter the e-mail account
information first and then synchronize your handheld to an existing username, the
e-mail account information you entered is overwritten.
Upgrading a MultiMail/VersaMail database
If you have previously used a Palm personal e-mail application such as MultiMail
SE or MultiMail Deluxe, or used version 2.0 of the VersaMail application, you can
upgrade your e-mail database for use with the VersaMail 2.5 application.
To upgrade an existing e-mail database for use with the VersaMail application:
1. Perform a HotSync operation with a user profile that contains the existing
e-mail database. To do so, press the HotSync button , and then select a profile
that contains an e-mail database from the displayed list of users.
2. Press the VersaMail button on your handheld.
3. Tap Yes to accept the upgrade.
