The infrared port located at the top of your handheld lets you send data from your handheld -- including entire applications -- to any other Palm OS® handheld that's close by and also equipped with an IR port. s IR beaming: Managing desktop E-Mail away from your desk Mail lets you manage the e-mail that you send and receive through the E-Mail application on your Windows desktop computer. You can read, reply to, compose, and delete e-mail on your handheld; but to send or receive e-mail, you must perform a HotSync® operation either directly or indirectly. Direct methods include placing your handheld in the cradle attached to your computer, or using infrared communications. Indirect methods include using a modem, or using network HotSync technology. The key to Mail is that it truly synchronizes the mail in the Inbox of your desktop E-Mail application with the mail on your handheld. For example, if you delete e-mail items from Mail, your next HotSync operation also deletes the e-mail items from your desktop E-Mail application, so you never have to delete e-mail items twice. Similarly, if you read an e-mail item on your handheld and leave it in your Inbox, your next HotSync operation marks it as read in your desktop E-Mail application. Chapter 6 Page 143 In Mail, you can do the following: s s s View, delete, file, and reply to incoming mail. Create outgoing e-mail items and drafts of e-mail items.
