Letting Your NOOK Set up Your Account

To let your NOOK automatically conﬁgure your email account, do this:

1. On the email account set-up screen, enter the email address of the account you want to conﬁgure. This should

be an account you already have set up with your ISP or with an email service provider such as Google.

2. Enter the password for the account.

3. Tap Next.

Your NOOK connects to the email account and set up a connection. It then presents a screen with several

options. You can control how often your NOOK should check for email, whether or not you would like to be

notiﬁed when email arrives, and so on.

4. Select the options you want, and tap Next.

5. If you would like to give this account a name (such as Gmail) so you can distinguish it from other email accounts

on your NOOK, enter the name in the ﬁeld labeled Give this account a name. If you do not want to give this ac-

count a name, leave this ﬁeld blank.

6. In the ﬁeld labeled Your name, enter your name as you would like it to appear in email messages you send. This

name is the name that shows up in the From ﬁeld in email listings.

7. Click Done.

You’ve ﬁnished setting up your email account.

Manually Setting up Your Account

NOTE: To set up your account manually, you will need to know the name of your account’s email server. Most

ISPs and email service providers provide this information in their help pages. If you are setting up an

email account for a business or other private organization, you might need to ask a system administrator

for the server name and other relevant conﬁguration information.

1. On the email account set-up screen, enter the email address of the account you want to conﬁgure. This should

be an account you already have set up with your ISP or with an email service provider such as Google.

2. Enter the password for the account.

3. To make this account the default account you will use for sending mail from your NOOK, check the box labeled

Send email from this account by default.

4. Tap Manual Setup.

Your NOOK displays a Server settings screen.

5. In the Domain Username ﬁeld, enter your username for this server.

NOTE: Some servers require that your name begin with a backward slash \. Your system administrator will

know whether or not your email account requires this.

6. In the Server name ﬁeld, enter the name of the server.

7. To always use SSL when connecting to the email server, check the Use secure connection (SSL) ﬁeld.

NOTE: SSL, which stands for Secure Socket Layer, is a widely-used technology for encrypting Internet so it can-

not be intercepted or tampered with.

8. To accept all SSL certiﬁcates from email servers, check the box labeled Accept all SSL certiﬁcates.
