164 Getting started with Internet and Messaging
Automatically set up service
provider and messaging
The easiest way to set up your P900 is automatically, through
your service provider.
For
Messaging settings, your P900 supports the automatic
setup of:
• email accounts
• MMS message (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings.
Check your service provider's Web site for information or
contact their support desk and inquire about automatic remote
configuration of ISP (Internet Service Provider) settings, email
and MMS message settings.
If remote configuration is possible, they will send you the auto-
configuration messages required via an 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
1. Select Control panel > Connections > Messaging accounts >
SMS.
2. Check the information, for example the address of the service
center.
Accepting new Internet or Messaging
settings
New configuration messages will appear in the Auto setup
account inbox of Messaging. (Configuration messages for
email accounts will, however, be found in your SMS message
inbox.)
When an auto setup message appears, select it.
A dialog with a brief text and operator message appears on the
screen. You can accept the new settings or leave the message in
the inbox
.
If the name of the new account is the same as that of an existing
account, you can choose to create a new account with the same
name or replace the existing account.
Note Never accept remote configuration messages if you are
not expecting them or are unsure where they have come from.
Manually set up the service
provider
As an alternative to setting up an Internet account automatically,
you can enter the settings manually from Control panel >
Connections > Internet accounts.
