How can I start using my email in the phone?

Use the Email application in your phone to send and receive emails through your regular email account or through your corporate account. Or you can do both. Your phone can handle several email accounts at the same time. You can set up these accounts to run through one combined inbox, or through separate inboxes. Note that emails you receive to your
Gmail™
account can be accessed in the phone from both the Email and the
Gmail™
applications.

To set up an email account in your phone

  1. From your Home screen, tap the Application screen icon.
  2. Find and tap Email.
  3. Enter your email address and password, then tap Next.
  4. If the settings for the email account cannot be downloaded automatically, complete the setup manually. If necessary, contact your email service provider for detailed settings. For corporate email setup on your phone, select Exchange Active Sync as the account type.
  5. When you are prompted, enter a name for your email account, so that it is easily identifiable. The same name shows in the emails you send from this account. When you are finished, tap Done.
