What is Email on 3?

Email on 3 pushes the emails from your PC email accounts to the inbox on your mobile. Whether you use Google Mail, Yahoo! Mail, Windows Live Hotmail, Microsoft Outlook, or your very own email service, you can send and receive emails on your mobile. And if you’ve got a compatible mobile you can download attachments and synchronise your work calendar and contacts too.

How does Email on 3 work?

Email on 3 is already installed on most of our mobiles and you can find it in Favourites (known as Launcher or QuickLinks on some mobiles). If you can't see it here, go to Planet 3, Services, Email & Social Networks. Click on Email on 3 and follow the simple instructions to download it and set up your email accounts. You can add as many work or personal email accounts as you like (depending on the memory available on your mobile).

Using Email on 3 on your phone

To open email press the top left key (Favourites) and scroll down to Email on 3. Check out the demo below.

On some mobiles you can't open Email on 3 from Favourites. You’ll need to go your main menu where the application can be found in the following:

Nokia: go to ‘My Own’, ‘Installations’ or ‘Applications’
Sony Ericsson:  go to ‘Entertainment’, then ‘Applications’
Samsung: go to ‘Applications’ or ‘Entertainment’, then ‘Games & More’
