Automatically set up service
provider and messaging
The easiest way to set up your P910i is automatically, through
your service provider.
For
Messages
settings your P910i supports automatic setup
of:
• email accounts
• MMS message (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings.
Check your service provider's Web site for information or
contact their support desk and ask about automatic remote
phone set-up of ISP (Internet Service Provider) settings, email
