Syncing email on specific devices

Setup Workshop PPemail

This seminar details the process to transfer (“sync”) email data from the PPemail server to your device. It provides links to detailed, step-by-step instructions from our partner organisation, Namecheap.

Syncing Accounts (in general)

Making material accessible from multiple devices is straightforward but initial setup requires specific steps. Important terms include server and client.

• Server: the ‘remote’ device that stores the data to sync

⁃ a computer linked to the internet

• Client: the ‘local’ device to receive the data

⁃ a mobile, desktop computer, laptop, or tablet

To sync information between server and client, set a specific application on a device to contact the server. The application could be an email browser, a note program, a calendar, an address book, or others of interest.

Regardless the application, the general process is similar:

1) select the application;
2) access the settings function;
3) carefully enter the information provided from PPemail;
4) confirm the the client syncs with the server as expected.

This seminar focuses on syncing emails. Look for other seminars for different applications.
