Initializing Services

For each service to which your company has given you access (for example, Microsoft Exchange 2000), you are prompted for your user name and password, and given an opportunity to set up alert rules. Note: The SMS Alerts section shows up only your Enterprise Administrator enabled this for you.

To initialize services:

1. Enter your user name and password for the specified service.

For example, if the service is Microsoft Exchange 2000, enter your Exchange 2000 user name and password.
Note: By providing this information here, you will not have to enter it again when you access your corporate email via the Web or a mobile device. You will only have to enter your Network Solution user name and password.
In order to confirm that you entered it properly the first time, you are prompted to enter your password again.
Important: If you have a mailbox name different from your NT login name, enter your user name in the following format while initializing services for Microsoft Exchange 5.5:

NTdomain/NTusername/Exchangealias

• Select no if you do not want to be alerted of incoming messages on your mobile device(s). You can set up alerts at a later time.
4. Click Save & Continue.

If you chose not to receive alerts, return to step 1 and initialize the next service or go to your PCS Business Connection Webmail account.
