You don't need Sync for e-mail, however the easiest way to turn it on is to drop the Power Widget on a home screen: this has a button for switching Sync on and off.

Sounds to me like your mobile data is turned off - can you use the browser via mobile?

Assuming your settings menus are the same as mine, you can turn data on by going to Settings, hitting More .. under Wireless and Networks then hitting Mobile Networks. Finally, check that Data enabled is ticked.

Under common settings touch settings & there should be an option to change the sync frequency. It's probably set to never at the moment.

Additionally in your main system settings options you should see accounts & sync. Are background data & Auto-sync enabled?

Also in settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks is Data enabled ticked?

Do other apps work via mobile data?
