Can you help me?
Thanks so much for your time ;>)

Sean,
To set up a POP account on your device, start in the Outlook E-mail application (sometimes called Messaging or Inbox). Go to Menu/Tools/New Account and enter your POP email address. The software will then attempt to automatically configure your account, but you may have to click through and manually enter server addresses, user name, and password. You will need to know all these from your desktop setup. At the end, you will be asked to schedule your downloads. Then the mail application will examine the messages in the POP mailbox and download those that are marked as new (i.e. not downloaded already to another computer.)
Comment: Downloading messages from a POP server is NOT "wireless sync" and in fact is the opposite of synchronization. It's a bare-minimum way to get your POP email on your device. The device and whatever other computer(s) you use to check POP email will remain separate and unconnected. Most people who want continuous and seamless communication whether using the device or other computers will opt for [an alternate method, including rickyboy's suggestion.]
