E-mail support
The purpose of this document is to help you to configure 
and use your device when using e-mail with your Nokia 
E61i. It walks you through defining the right settings for 
your e-mail account and discusses some common 
problems that can be caused by wrong settings.
To receive and send e-mail, you must have a remote 
mailbox service. This service may be offered by an Internet 
service provider, a network service provider, or your 
company. Your device is compliant with Internet standards 
SMTP, IMAP4 (revision 1), and POP3, and with different 
push e-mail solutions. Other e-mail providers may offer 
services with different settings or features than those 
described in this user guide. Contact your e-mail provider 
or service provider for more details.
Before you can send, receive, retrieve, reply to, and forward 
e-mail on your device, you must also do the following:
• Configure an Internet access point (for more 
information, see Nokia E61i User Guide).
• Set up an e-mail account, and define the e-mail 
settings correctly.
Follow the instructions from your remote mailbox and 
Internet service providers. Contact your network and 
Internet service providers or operator for the correct 
settings.

Tip: POP3 is a version of the post office 
protocol that is used to store and retrieve

is a version of the Internet message access 
protocol that lets you access and manage 
e-mail messages while the messages are 
still on the e-mail server. You can then 
choose which messages to download to 
your device.
