Setting up email in the T290
Getting started Setting up email in the T290

Using email

The T290 is a great tool for keeping in touch using email. Use email in your mobile phone to send messages, pictures and attachments as you would with your computer.

Before you start

Make sure you have your UMTS/GPRS or GSM network operator and/or service provider subscription information at hand before you start setting up your email. You must have a phone subscription that supports data transmission.

Email account

To be able to send/receive email messages, you need to set up the email account in your phone. This can be done in three different ways: Automatically by using the Sony Ericsson Phone setup for email (if supported by your operator) Automatically by receiving settings from your service provider Manually by entering the settings in your phone We recommend that you set up email in your phone automatically, through your service provider or visit www.SonyEricsson.com/support and use the Phone setup for email since these are the easiest ways to quickly get started. This guide describes all three options.
Receive settings using the Phone setup for email
You will find the Phone setup for email at www.SonyEricsson.com/support. First of all you need the following information from your service provider: Email user name Email password Email address Follow the instructions on the screen. You will receive the Phone setup in a text message. When you receive the text message, you simply press YES to install your new settings.

If remote phone setup is possible, they will send you the auto setup in a text message. When you receive the text message, you simply press YES to install your new settings.
