Section 3C: Using Email 139

䡲 Mail from last gets messages sent within the number of days you specify

(default is 3).

䡲 Download attachments allows files attached to email to be

automatically downloaded to your device. Attachments that exceed the

maximum message size cannot be downloaded.

䡲 Maximum message size sets the maximum size limit, in kilobytes (KB),

for how much of an incoming email message is downloaded. The

maximum size of an incoming message is 5KB by default (that is, the

first 5KB of all incoming email messages is downloaded), but you can

enter any size up to 2,048KB (approximately 2 megabytes, or 2MB),

including attachments.

䡲 Message Format sets the format in which you retrieve messages. If you

choose HTML, any messages sent in HTML format appear with basic

HTML formatting intact. Other messages appear as plain text. If you

choose Tex t, all messages appear as plain text, regardless of the format

in which they were sent.

5. Select OK.

Note:

The maximum message size that you can retrieve is 60KB for the body

text and approximately 5MB of total data for any attachments. To view

a message whose total size is greater than the maximum message size

you select but is less than 5MB, you need to select More on the message

screen to fully download the message.

Note:

VersaMail sends all messages as plain text only, with all HTML tags

stripped, even if you are forwarding or replying to a message that was

originally received as HTML.
