IMAP4 and POP3
Xperia™ devices support IMAP4 and POP3 email protocols, meaning that
most standard types of email accounts can be used with the Xperia™
Email application. Setting up IMAP4 or POP3 accounts is made easier
by the auto-discovery feature in the Xperia™ Email application, which
configures most accounts in just a few steps – the user only has to enter
the email address and password for the account. The peak-time feature in
Xperia™ devices described above can also be used for IMAP3 and POP3
accounts.
The Xperia™ Email application
Users can access all their different email accounts and messages
using the Email app in Xperia™ devices. The Email app supports email
encryption through SSL/TLS, enabling a secure communication channel
between the Xperia™ device and the email server. With S/MIME, the
content of the messages can also be secured. Emails can be managed in
separate account inboxes or in one combined inbox, giving both control
and a clear overview of all emails. The Xperia™ Email app supports full-
text search of all messages, including those synched to the device or
those left on the server. The user can sort emails by, for example, sender,
subject or read/unread status or choose to view email in threads, for easy
overview. The Xperia™ Email application can display HTML mail, giving
you content-rich emails that include pictures and extended use of fonts.
The Xperia™ Calendar application
Xperia™ devices are equipped with an efficient calendar which is perfectly
suited for business. It’s designed to enable users to quickly create, answer
and get an overview of invitations and schedules. Users can access
several calendars and synchronise them using direct push to get up-to-
the-minute schedule status. The calendars can also be synced separately
according to the preferences for each calendar. If you work with multiple
accounts, you can view them separately or in one combined view.
The Xperia™ Calendar supports the smart search feature, which lets you
perform a full-text search to find appointments that match the search
based on single words in the appointment text, subject or email address.
For organisations that provide Microsoft
®
Exchange ActiveSync
®
, users
can benefit from the centrally-managed Global Address List (GAL) that
gives as-you-type suggestions of individual email addresses, meeting
rooms or distribution groups when you create or update appointments.
With Exchange Server 2010 and later, users can verify attendee availability
before setting up a meeting.
The Xperia™ Contacts application
With the Xperia™ Contacts application users can view contacts from
multiple accounts all in one place, or they can choose to filter contacts
by account. Contacts managed in the Xperia™ Contacts application are
available in other applications across an Xperia™ device, for example, in
most communications.
If your business uses Microsoft
®
Exchange ActiveSync
®
, the support for
the Global Address List (GAL) provides comprehensive searchability for
contacts in your enterprise address list. Also when searching contacts
in other accounts, or locally in the device, you can take advantage of the
smart search feature in the Xperia™ Contacts application, called Smart
Dial. With Smart Dial you enter letters or numbers that correspond to the
contact you want to call, and as you enter each letter or number, a list of
possible matches appears. The Contacts application supports the vCard
format (*.vcf), which makes it possible to import and export contact files
and to exchange vCards with other devices.
