Tip! The Settings
wizard program included
in the PC Suite for Nokia
3660 can help you
configure access point
and mailbox settings. You
can also copy existing
settings, for example,
from your computer to
your phone. See the CD-
ROM supplied in the sales
package.
If you select New message→ Create:→ E-mail or Mailbox in the Messaging main view and
you have not set up your e-mail account, you will be prompted to do so. See ‘
Settings
needed for e-mail’, p. 80.
When you create a new mailbox, the name you give to the mailbox automatically
replaces Mailbox in the Messaging main view. You can have several mailboxes (max. six).
Opening the mailbox
When you open the mailbox, you can choose whether you want to view the previously
retrieved e-mail messages and e-mail headings offline or connect to the e-mail server.
• When you scroll to your mailbox and press , the phone asks you if you want to
Connect to mailbox? Select Yes to connect to your mailbox or No to view previously
retrieved e-mail messages offline.
• Another way to start a connection is to select Options→ Connect.
Viewing e-mail messages when online
When you are online, you are continuously connected to a remote mailbox via a data call
or a packet data connection. See also ‘
Data connection indicators’, p. 10, ‘GSM data calls’,
p. 31
, and ‘Packet data (General Packet Radio Service, GPRS)’, p. 32.
Note: If you are using the POP3 protocol, e-mail messages are not updated
automatically in online mode. To see the newest e-mail messages, you need to
disconnect and then make a new connection to your mailbox.
