I'm using a Dell Axim x50v. I'm new to this. I have my POP3 set up correctly
but each time i try to connect and log on it keeps bringing up the request
for incoming email user name and password. I have tried to retype everything
including deleting the entire set up and trying from scratch. I still get
this request and can't get past it. Any suggestions? Also, I've checked with
my ISP. As far as they can tell, everything I entered is correct. It works
on my laptop but not my PDA.

How are you connecting your PDA? Is it using the same network as your
laptop?

I am simply connecting through WiFi to my home wireless but plan to connect
to other WiFi systems when I travel.

The first time you connect to a pop server it may take a couple of minutes
on Windows Moible 2003. In any cae, make sure you are entering the correct
password - use the keyboard SIP instead of block recogniser or other
methods.

And check that you are not entering an incorrect port on any server name or
missing something like this.

If you're using the Keyboard for input, and under Options you have
checked the box for "Capitalize first letter of sentence", you may be
inadvertantly capitalizing the first charcter. Either uncheck the box,
or touch the letter, backspace, and then put it in again.
