Email Messaging
October 21, 2003 T-Mobile Sidekick Owner’s Manual 113
4 In the General group box, you can turn certain functionality on or off:
•The Collect email from this account check box is checked by default. If, at some point in the future, you
want the Email application to stop collecting email messages from the external account, select the check
box to clear the check mark in the box. The account information is saved in case you want the application
to start collecting email messages from that account later.
•The Remove retrieved email from server is not checked by default. This means that as your messages
are fetched to your device and Email Desktop Interface, those messages are also kept on the email server.
If you want the messages on the server to be removed as they’re downloaded to your device, then check
this box.
5 The Account group box on the Edit Account screen contains the basic external email account information
you entered when you first set up the account. You can edit any of the fields if you need to.
You can decide the folder in which you want messages from this account delivered. Select from all existing
folders (including those you’ve created) from the Email Folder pop-up menu. Note that if you later rename
the folder you selected, this setting will update automatically.
Also, this group box contains fields where you can specify display names and to/from email addresses.
• From Name - Your name as you'd like it to appear on message sent through this account.
• From Address - The email address you’d like to appear in the From field on outgoing messages from this
account.
• Reply-To Name - The email name that will appear in the To field when people reply to a message you
send from this account.
• Reply-To Address - The email address that you want used when people reply to messages sent from this
account.
6 When you are finished making your edits, select Done . To cancel any changes you’ve made, press Menu
then select Cancel [ + .].
Discard an Email Account

2 Scroll to highlight the button opposite the account name you want to discard.
3 Open the menu and select Discard [ + ].
4 A confirmation dialog box appears. Select OK to discard the account; select Cancel to cancel the deletion.
