Preliminary
Automatically set up service provider
and messaging
The easiest way to set up your P800 is automatically, through
your service provider.
For
Messages
settings your P800 supports automatic setup
of:
• e-mail accounts
• MMS message (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings.
Check your service provider's website for information or contact
their support desk and ask about automatic remote configuration
of ISP (Internet Service Provider) settings, e-mail and MMS
message settings.
If remote configuration is possible, they will send you the auto
configuration messages required by SMS message.
Settings valid for your network operator and one or more of
these services may also be available through the phone
configurator utility at www.sonyericsson.com
To check that your SMS messaging settings are correct:
• Select
Control panel > Connections > Messaging accounts >
SMS.
Accepting new Internet or Messages
settings
New configuration messages will appear in the
Auto setup
account inbox of
Messages.
(Configuration messages for e-
mail accounts will, however, be found in your
SMS message
inbox.)
When an auto setup message appears, select it.
A dialogue with a brief text and operator message appears on the
screen. You can accept the new settings or leave the message in
the inbox
.

account you can choose to create a new account with the same
name or replace the existing account.
Warning! Never accept remote configuration messages if you
are not expecting them or are unsure where they have come
from.
Manually set up service provider
Alternatively to setting up an Internet account automatically,
you can enter the settings manually from
Internet accounts
on the
Connections
tab of the
Control panel.
First collect all the information you will need. You can obtain
this information from your ISP (Internet Service Provider), or if
you are connecting to a corporate network, your IT Manager.
