Using your communicator with Microsoft Outlook
The software that comes with your Treo communicator includes everything you need to
synchronize your communicator with Microsoft Outlook. If you already have Microsoft Outlook
installed on your computer, the installation program prompts you to choose the Microsoft Outlook
synchronization option.
Using your communicator with another PIM
If you prefer to use another personal information manager (PIM), such as Lotus Notes, you can
use it if third-party connection software, called a conduit, is available for your PIM. You must install
the software that came with your Treo communicator along with the conduit for your PIM to
synchronize the data between your communicator and your PIM. For information on conduit
software, go to this web site: www.handspring.com.
Using an e-mail application with your communicator
Your communicator comes with the One-Touch Mail™ e-mail application by JP Mobile. You can
also download the Treo™ Mail application from www.handspring.com, or use an e-mail application
provided by your wireless service provider. To use an e-mail application, you must subscribe to
GPRS and Internet services from your wireless service provider.
In most cases, your communicator is pre-configured with your wireless service provider’s
communication settings. If it is not pre-configured, contact your wireless service provider to obtain
the correct settings and follow the instructions on page 184 to configure a new service template.
If you prefer, you can dial-in to your ISP (Internet Service Provider) account. However, to use a
dial-up connection, your wireless service account must also include circuit switched data (CSD)
services. See page 182 for information on configuring a dial-up service template.
One-Touch Mail
One-Touch Mail is a wireless e-mail application that enables you to access your ISP (POP3
account) e-mail directly from your communicator. You may also be able to use One-Touch Mail
to access your corporate e-mail; contact your System Administrator for assistance.
To install One-Touch Mail, see page 42 for instructions on installing add-on applications. The
One-Touch Mail application is located in the One-Touch folder on the Handspring CD-ROM.
Treo Mail
Treo Mail enables you to use your communicator to send, receive, and delete e-mail messages
from your existing work or personal e-mail account. With Treo Mail’s flexible delivery options, you
control what, how much, and when e-mail is delivered to your communicator, and all messages
are encrypted at all points to protect your privacy without complicated security software.
Treo Mail is available in Corporate and Internet editions. The Corporate Edition is designed for
use with Microsoft Outlook/Exchange or a corporate e-mail account that is behind a firewall. The
Internet Edition is designed for use with a POP3 e-mail account that’s accessed via an ISP.
To use Treo Mail, you must establish a Handspring Treo Mail Service account and download the
software from the Treo Mail website: www.handspring.com/treomail.
