Dear Michael,
You have to set up an Email account on the BrailleNote if you
want to configure your unit to work with Email. Go to the
Keymail setup menu and select directory of Email accounts and
then select add an account. It will take you through the steps.
If you upgrade to 7.5 you can use your gmail account but not
before.
From,
Bobby

Subject: [Braillenote] email and internet on the braillenote
I live in the UK and am thinking about connecting my Braillenote
to
the Internet and using it for sending email as although I do a
lot of
stuff with my BN ie my Spanish course, using Keyplan and taking
notes
for meetings of a Blind group we have set up in my local area to
try
and get better facilities for the Blind there I am wondering if I
am
making the best use of the machine or whether I could be doing
more
with the money I spent on purchasing it as they cost a few
thousand
pounds in the UK.
I have my ISP with BT but I also have a GMail account for email
and my
service has a wireless router although I as yet am not making any
use
of my wireless connection what with me having problems with my
laptop
which I unfortunately put out of action when I installed the
testing
version of Ubuntu Linux on it so I am still not using wireless
since I
got my wireless router from BT.
What tips could anyone suggest for me which would get me going
with
both Internet and email on my Braillenote?
Would I need to change my ISP for example?
Could I use my Googlemail address with the BN?
Apart from a couple of demonstrations I have managed to work out
some
features of the Braillenote by myself ie the Keyplan feature
which is
just as well as it would have cost me another six hundred and odd
pounds on top of the four thousand and odd pounds I have already
spent
on the unit itself.
You can answer my questions directly if you like if this question
is
going to bug people who may have already given answers as regards
setting up wireless Internet and email.
