7.1 E-mail and Text Messages
Messaging is where all of your e-mail accounts and your text message
account are located. You can send and receive Outlook e-mail, Internet
e-mail through an Internet service provider (ISP), and text messages.
You can also access e-mail from work using a VPN connection. For
more information about e-mail and text messages, see Help on the
device.

service provider (ISP) or an account that you access using a VPN
server connection (typically a work account) before you can send and
receive mail.
1. Tap Start > Messaging.
2. Tap Menu > Tools > New Account.

Auto configuration attempts to download necessary e-mail
server settings so that you do not need to enter them manually.
4. Once Auto configuration has finished, tap Next.
5. Enter your name (the name you want displayed when you send
e-mail), user name, and password; tap Next.
