Email and PIN messages
You can send and receive email messages. Email messages that are
sent from or received by your handheld are routed through an

PIN, you can send a PIN message to that person. PIN messages are
not routed through an existing email account.
Tip: To locate your handheld PIN, on the Home screen, click the Options
icon. The Options screen appears. Click Status. The PIN field displays your
PIN.
