Yes, but it depends on what email service you have (e.g., gmail, roadrunner, etc..). There are several threads on this forum on this topic - perhaps you could search the forum for the type of email you have. Or, let us know what you use for email.
Marabou...I'm using gmail - but only because I don't want my Mac mail to appear on the iPad.
Is there a way to have my Mac mail set up on the iPad, but to avoid having emails duplicated on it? Then it could presumably just be used when one was away from one' desktop.
