Email

Using Gmail/Google Mail 

Gmail/Google Mail is Google’s web-based email service. Gmail/Google Mail is configured 
when you first set up your phone. Depending on your synchronization settings, Gmail/Google 
Mail on your phone is automatically synchronized with one or more Gmail/Google Mail 
accounts on the web. For more information about synchronization, see “Synchronizing with a 
Google Account” in the Accounts and sync chapter.

Viewing your Gmail/Google Mail inbox

The Inbox conversations list is your default Gmail/Google Mail view. All your received email 
messages are delivered to your Inbox.

Gmail/Google Mail groups each message you send with all the responses you receive. 
This conversation list continues to grow as new replies arrive, so you can always see your 
messages in context. A new message or a change to the subject of a current message will 
begin a new conversation.

Press HOME   , and then tap 

 > 

Gmail/Google Mail. 

To scroll through the conversation list, swipe your finger up/down on the screen or the 
optical joystick.
