Updating the mobile portal
The MyPalm mobile portal on your handheld is much like a portal site on the
Internet. It allows you to quickly and wirelessly access Internet content by channel,
and it specially formats content for viewing on a handheld. When you elect to
receive updates to the mobile portal, the update process initiates an Internet
connection each time you perform a HotSync operation. If a newer version of the
MyPalm mobile portal is found, it replaces the current version on your handheld
during the HotSync operation.
For information about changing conduit settings, see “Customizing HotSync
application settings” in Chapter 16.
Palm MultiMail Deluxe Desktop Link
Palm MultiMail Deluxe Desktop Link securely forwards e-mail from your
Windows 2000 Microsoft Outlook business e-mail account to your handheld. Your
handheld notifies you of arriving e-mail by blinking its red indicator light at paired
intervals, vibrating, or sounding an alarm.
For information about selecting notification methods, see “General preferences” in
Chapter 17.
NOTE You must install Palm MultiMail Deluxe Desktop Link to the same computer
that you use to access your business e-mail.

a new user name during the next HotSync operation. See “Performing a hard reset”
in Appendix A for details.
