Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org) Once this is done, you should start receiving emails from your account. When you first send an email from your account through your website server, instead of through the usual setup through your phone provider internet connection, you may receive the above message again. Click 'Continue' whenever this comes up. This should not happen often, unless you routinely power off your phone (or let it's battery run out completely and requires recharging). This is not impacted by pressing the lock button on the top of your phone. If you have any issues with sending or receiving emails through your server, please email us at support@magicdust.com.au or if your only email address is down, call us on 1300 309 379 (option 3 for support) so we can troubleshoot the issue for you.
