6E-mail and MessagingChoosing your e-mail programVoqMailTM SoftwareCreating MessagesViewing and responding to messagesMultimedia Messaging Service (MMS)Instant messaging
Voq User Guide50 2130324The Voq phone supports a full range of e-mail and messaging programs including e-mail Inbox, Text Messaging, Multimedia Messaging Service, and Instant Messaging. Choosing your e-mail programYour phone arrives with two different e-mail programs pre-installed: VoqMail and ActiveSync. You must choose one of these programs to handle your mail and then configure your e-mail account.The program you choose will depend on the type of e-mail server your service provider or corporate e-mail system uses. The question you must answer is, “Does my service provider support IMAP4 or POP3 only?”•If your e-mail server supports the IMAP4 protocol, we recommend you use VoqMail or VoqMail Pro because it was specially designed and optimized for the Voq phone. See “Setting up a VoqMail account” on page 54.•If your e-mail server supports only the POP3 protocol, you must use ActiveSync. See “Create an ActiveSync e-mail account” on page 79.Working with multiple accountsYou can configure and use up to eight different messaging accounts. All accounts are stored in the Inbox program. For example, you can have a separate account for:•Home e-mail (e.g. myname@myprovider.com)•Work e-mail (e.g. myname@mywork.com)•Internet e-mail (e.g. myname@hotmail.com)•SMS (e.g. myname@myprovider.com)Each account has its own separate set of message folders: Drafts, Inbox, Outbox, Sent.About “Inbox”The word “inbox” can mean different things depending on where it appears on your phone:•Inbox is the name of the program you open from the Start menu that contains all your messaging accounts such as VoqMail, ActiveSync, and SMS.•Inbox is a folder that contains your messages. Each messaging account has its own inbox
E-mail and MessagingDraft D (Jan. 20, 2004) 51About “ActiveSync”The word “ActiveSync” can mean different things depending on where it appears on your phone:•ActiveSync is the name of the program that you use to synchronize information with your desktop PC.•ActiveSync is also the account name for your Microsoft Exchange mailbox.

VoqMail is a powerful e-mail program that provides you with an “always there” e-mail experience. VoqMail is remarkable because it uses a fraction of the time and bandwidth required by some other mail programs to check and retrieve mail.There are two versions of VoqMail: VoqMail Personal, and the optional VoqMail Pro. Even if you have not purchased the VoqMail Pro version, your new phone includes a demo license that lets you try out VoqMail Pro features for a limited period of time.VoqMail Personal version featuresVoqMail Personal allow you to:•Connect to mail servers hosted by Internet or telephone service providers•Enjoy full e-mail functionality–send, receive, forward and delete messages•Define your e-mail delivery settings•Send messages immediately•Download existing contacts from your PC•Send e-mails using the Contacts list•Reply to e-mails with a phone call•Synchronize with your PC–messages you read on VoqMail are shown as read on your desktop PCBattery, bandwidth, and memory management featuresVoqMail includes many features that minimize airtime use and maximize battery life. For example, the program suspends mail delivery when memory and battery are low, you are out of coverage, or you receive a voice call. Mail delivery resumes when the condition passes. VoqMail Pro featuresVoqMail Pro is an optional upgrade to the VoqMail Personal program. In addition to all the features of the Personal version listed above, VoqMail Pro allows your phone to seamlessly connect to your work e-mail on your company network. Messages sent to your company e-mail address are forwarded to your phone. Messages sent from your phone leave a copy in the Sent folder of your desktop PC.VoqMail Pro also includes these enhanced features:•“Always there” business e-mail–no need to manually check for mail•Direct communication with the e-mail server–you do not need to leave your work PC running•Custom alerts–assign different alerts to e-mails from different people•Download settings–choose how much of a message body to download

You do not need to leave your work PC running, install extra software on your enterprise mail server, or install a dedicated server to push e-mail to your phone.VoqMail Pro is compatible with:•Microsoft Exchange 5.5, 2000 and 2003•Lotus Notes 4.6, 5.0 and R6 •Novell GroupWise•Other IMAP4 serversVoqMail Pro is not compatible with:•POP3 serversThe Voq phone provides POP3 support through a standard account that you can set up using ActiveSync. See “Create an ActiveSync e-mail account” on page 79.Setting up a VoqMail accountYou set up your VoqMail e-mail account using the VoqMail Setup Wizard. If you are using VoqMail Professional Edition, the wizard allows you to send a pre-composed e-mail message from your phone to your IT manager from the setup wizard, and he or she can configure your work e-mail settings remotely. In this case, you do not need to gather your system information.Gather system information for a manual setupTo configure your e-mail, you need the following:VoqMail Personal•An e-mail account with an Internet service provider•E-mail address (e.g. jsmith@myprovider.com)•Your password•Domain name (e.g. myprovider)•Incoming and outgoing mail server names (e.g. mail.myprovider.com)•A data connection for connecting to the Internet.

Contact your service provider for more information. See “Create an ActiveSync e-mail account” on page 79.Scheduling e-mail polling with VoqMailThe Voq phone periodically contacts your mail server and checks for mail. This is called polling and you don’t have to do it manually. This means your e-mail is “always there” similar to your desktop PC.Although polling uses very little bandwidth, you can control how often your phone checks for mail to maximize battery life and minimize airtime charges. For example, you can check less frequently after business hours when receiving mail is generally less urgent. Using the schedule wizard, you can define the polling frequency for three different periods throughout the day: Work, Sleep, and All Other Times. The default settings are: Work (every 15 minutes), Sleep (manually, i.e. no polling), All Other Times (every hour).Start the VoqMail Setup Wizard.

Synchronizing Your PhoneDraft D (Jan. 20, 2004) 77ActiveSync e-mail—When you synchronize your ActiveSync inbox, the phone:•Copies messages from the Outlook Inbox folder on your desktop computer, or from your mail server, to the Inbox folder on your phone.•Copies messages to your phone from the last three days only, and the first 500 bytes of each new message.•Links messages on your phone and your PC. When you delete a message on your phone, ActiveSync deletes the message from your PC the next time you synchronize, and vice versa.•Synchronizes messages in subfolders of other e-mail folders only if you selected the folders for synchronization on your phone.Note: SMS messages are not sychronized.Synchronizing remotely You can synchronize remotely with your desktop computer, or with a mail server. Synchronization takes place over a wireless connection instead of a direct local connection. To synchronize remotely with a desktop PC, the PC must be turned on. Note: Using ActiveSync to keep your e-mail accounts synchronized remotely can use a significant amount of bandwidth and battery power. if you are using VoqMail, your mail folders are always up to date on both the PC and the Voq phone using a minimal amount of bandwidth.

Messages read on the phone are marked as read on the desktop.·Sync Full Messages–Choose how often you want the phone to complete a full synchronization of messages.
