See screen shot.

The widget is part of the mail application, and as such you cannot have the updated mail application with the old style widget. Unfortunately as the mail application is built into the ROM it's not possible to replace.
Sorry.

Email client issue Symbian Belle
Hello everyone.
I just installed Symbian Belle in my nokia N8, and configured the email client with my Gmail account. I'm getting a strange error when I try to read any message of my inbox. Every time that I try to read a message, all that I can see is a white screen.
Do you guys know what is the solution of that? or another email client to use?
Thanks a lot!Hi Eb@Lot84,
Please let me know what exactly is the error that comes.
Regards,

Adding new fonts to Symbian Anna on E6
I wonder to know how to adding new fonts to Symbian Anna on my E6. Most of my Word and PowerPoint documents require some special fonts, such as Courier News, in order to display correctly.
Does anyone know the solution?@truong_nt
There is solution demonstrated for E7, N8, C7 & C6-01 but not yet seen E6 mentioned in this respect.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5 -
N8 email client performance issue
The email client on the N8 mostly works OK, but the performance is terrible when trying to reply to an email that is "long". Actually there really doesn't have to be that much text in the previous message(s) when the client starts to be really really slow. When typing, the lag is really making the typing almost impossible.
Is there plans to improve the performance? Will the Anna update improve the client? N8 isn't the best hardware out there, but still it has plenty of power to handle large emails also. This can be lightly tested using some webmail with the phones browser. When typing a reply to a long email there is no problem.
Others having performance issues when trying to reply to a long email?Same here, not only answering large emails, sending email with attachments is about the same. I am having sync problems too, Messaging looks erratic.

When I send an email it says that it is sent, but it never gets to the recipient. I am using multiple email addresses to check this and have looked in spam and all folders and the message is just not actually going through. I can log in to web-mail and the message appears in the sent folder and I can resend from web-mail and instantly the mail is received. I also installed another email client program and it is able to send mails and they go through instantly. Only Thunderbird is having issues with this. I have tried uninstalling and rebooting and then re-installing and after setup I still can not get emails to go through. If this is something simple with a setting for Thunderbird I would love a fix as we have been using Thunderbird for 6+ years. Otherwise I will just have to use the other program as it works with no mess

UTL_MAIL shows character set in email client
Hello,
Database: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.3.0
OS: Red Had Enterprise Linux (version 3)
I'm trying to use the UTL_MAIL package to send an email and the actual mail sending works fine. However on the client side the database character set (WE8ISO8859P1) is displayed in the "From:" field and it's also displayed in the "Subject:" field (along with the actual email address/subject). Can someone please let me know why this is happening and how I fix it?
The code I use is:
<font face="Courier New" size="2">
<font color = "maroon">exec</font> <font color = "maroon">utl_mail</font><font color = "silver">.</font><font color = "maroon">send</font><font color = "maroon">(</font> <font color = "maroon">sender</font> <font color = "silver">=></font> <font color = "red">'"Database Check" <[email protected]>'</font><font color = "silver">,</font>
<font color = "maroon">recipients</font> <font color = "silver">=></font> <font color = "red">'"Oracle DBA" <[email protected]>'</font><font color = "silver">,</font> <font color = "maroon">
<br>subject</font> <font color = "silver">=></font><font color = "red">'test email subject'</font><font color = "silver">,</font> <font color = "maroon">
<br>message</font> <font color = "silver">=></font> <font color = "red">'message body text'</font><font color = "silver">,</font> <font color = "maroon">
<br>mime_type</font> <font color = "silver">=></font><font color = "red">'text/plain charset=us-ascii;'</font><font color = "maroon">)</font><font color = "silver">;</font>
</font>
Here's a screenshot of how the email appears on the client-side (Novell GroupWise. Outlook 2007 also displays it the same way). Please note I've blanked out the recipients name (which is displayed correctly, without the character set).
http://oi53.tinypic.com/25usgme.jpg
So why is the character set displayed? I've tried various combinations of using double-quotes and single quotes to no avail. Also the email is displayed perfectly fine if I use the old UTL_SMTP package!
Please help!
Thanks!
Edited by: feersum_endjinn on 27-Jan-2011 03:00Can you post the raw e-mail received by the Groupwise/Outlook client? Please use the tag as prefix and suffix for the contents, in order to prevent the pre-formatted text from being formatted by Jives.

Trouble Compiling my Email-client
Hi
I have written this email -client, but have some trouble compiling it !
Then I try to compile it the following errors:
MailClient.java:350: <identifier> expected
public syncronize void mails(String t){
^
MailClient.java:727: ';' expected
private class myWindowListener extends WindowAdapter{
^
MailClient.java:747: '}' expected
3 errors.
What do I need to change to correct these errors ?
I hope that there is somebody out there who can help me get my program to work.
Thanks in advance.
Sincrely Yours
Fred

index.read = "Yes";Some suggestions:
1. as the others stated- you should really post specific questions rather than 1 huge ugly class!
2. use code tags
3. get a decent IDE- it would take about 1 minute to then see where the error is-
4. the rrors were just misspelled 'synchronized' and missing argument ','
5. Try not to make such huge classes!!- Try to follow certain coding "patterns"- like MVC- and not stick everything in 1 class- separate the functionality- it makes coding much easier!
here is fixed code (at least gets rid of those last errors):

Best (or best for me) email client
I've just started using my new MacBook Pro with OS 10.4, graduating from a PB G4. And I'm looking for guidance on the best email client to use with it. I abandoned Mail ages ago, because it didn't handle HTML - has that changed?* I abandoned Entourage because it didn't allow bulk sends, so I've been using Thunderbird.
So I want an email client that will handle HTML, groups, and bulk sends. And I would like to centralise all my contacts on the Apple Address Book, so ideally I want the email client to read that for email addresses when I start entering a recipient.
Suggestions please!
* I tried to open Mail to look at it, but it asked if I want to import all my emails etc. As the answer is currently no, it won't load - a bit silly!
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)"One negative to using the Mac Mail app in OSX is it doesn't
include a HTML composer like most of the others do."
Do you regularly need to insert your own HTML code within the body of a message?
If not, RTF with Tiger Mail is HTML but you must select a font via the font panel when composing a message and/or bold/underline selected text or change the color of all or selected text for the message to be sent as HTML.
Using Tiger's Safari, you can send a web page in its entirety via a Mail.app message. At the Safari menu bar, go to File and select Mail Contents of This Page. The web page will be copied to a new Mail.app message which will be sent in its entirety.
If you don't regularly need to insert your own HTML code but need to do so on occasion, you can use the HTML editor/composer of your choice (Apple's Text Edit application can be used for this) and save the complete HTML document. Open the saved document with Safari and after confirming the HTML layout is as desired, use Mail Contents of This Page.
Just thought I throw this in as an FYI. -
Cannot enable Entourage as default email client in SL
Help, this is driving me bonkers! I want to use MS Entourage as my default email client and I set it as the default program via "preferences' in Mail.app, however, every time I try to email a document via Preview it opens Mail.app. Same goes for when I try to send anything using the 'Mail PDF' option in the print dialog. I've recently been forced to move to a Mac as my PC died and I inherited my wife's old MacBook and so far her claims of 'it just works' are not sitting well with me! Please help, this is just so frustrating. Thanks.
Starting with Entourage 2008, you can set Entourage as the default in Preferences > General.
You can also use one of the freeware applications to change default applications.
I like to use IC Switch. It places an icon in the menu bar so I can easily toggle between default applications for web browsers, mail clients. ftp etc.

QuickOffice Pro fails to Install on Symbian Anna
I have a Nokia N8 with Symbian Anna. I purchased QuickOffice Pro from Ovi Store and it downloads but then fails to install. The trial version from the QuickOffice site also fails to install. Before I purchased QuickOffice I deleted the version of QuickOffice that came with Symbian Anna.
Now I am left with no QuickOffice even though I have paid for it.
Can someone suggest what I should do so I can install the QuickOffice Pro that I have paid for.
Jen
Solved!
Go to Solution.I emailed quickoffice tech support and they gave me a solution that works.
My unit is a C6-01 that I recently updated (successfully) to symbian anna including the 2 updates that came later.
Here's how I did it as per their advice:
Before you start, download the .sis file for the quickoffice pro version 7 (39) that you purchased from Quickoffice. You will use this later.
1. backup your phone using nokia ovi suite, if you want to shorten this, backup only the important data like phone contacts, device settings, applications settings, calender etc. You can do away with the backup of music, picture and video files as those take time.
2. reset your device as follows which I quote " At the main screen, enter *#7370# – The default lock code is 12345. This will restore the device to its original state, removing all user data, contacts, and third-party applications you may have installed."
this will tell you that the reset will also erase the contents of your memory card, if you dont want your memory card erased, remove it before resetting, then proceed to resetting. If you have entered your own lock code, use that instead of the default lock code 12345.
after you enter the lock code, the phone will shut down and reboot with a white screen only. Wait for it to compelete as it takes some time.
3. After the resetting is complete, all softwares that you installed will be temporarily gone (since you took out the memory card) but you can recover it later.
4. connect your cell to your PC and use Nokia Ovi suiet to install the Quickoffice pro 7 that you downloaded.
this should install the quickoffice pro successfully.
Check if the quickoffice pro is working.
5.then re-install your memory card which you removed in step 2. The restore the contents of your phone using OVI suite.
6. Finally, update your phone software using ovisuite. It will say that it has 2 or 3 updates pending. Just proceed with the update since that update will not erase the quickoffice pro that is already installed.
that's it. you should have a working copy of QUickoffice pro 7.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE: This worked on my Nokia C6-01 updated to Symbian Anna. I cannot speak for other nokia models.
I hope this helps. -
I KNOW everyone is **bleep**, I KNOW everyone is disppointed, frustrated, angry....gosh the words does not cover the emotions involved...
I have gone through all the emotions...first the excitement when the news came out 'new update coming soon!'...then disappointment, followed by anger and now...a lil' bit i-don't-give-a-fruitcake' lol...
People, please realise, Nokia is a business...they make phones and they need to sell phones. They said they still have 10 phones to come out between now and approximately end of next year (2012). So you have to understand, they need to have a tactic in place, to get people to keep buying their phones. Otherwise, Nokia would go bankrupt and that's a no no (business 101). So their tactic is to delay software updates, bring in 'new phones' with the new updates in place, so that this will entice new buyers. They're then told 'oh there's a new update, coming soon'. They don't care about the old customers...they've got your money already...they're not entitled to give you 'free stuff'. (they missed the memo, coz loyal fans are GOLD).
Suppose if Nokia had given the anna update at end of q1 as 'planned'. That means all the old and loyal customers would've been super happy (SUPER DUPER HAPPY). BUTTTTT, then the x7 would've been obsolete, EVEN before it had came out!!! There would be no reason for people to buy an x7, especially since it would've been super duper expensive. On the other hand, people would be buying the n8/c7/c6 coz they'd be cheap...AND have the latest software. Now this would've been very silly!!
So relax people. Nokia is stuck in a rut...they can't do anything right, because...the only options they've got are either go bankrupt really early, or...get the people angry. They simply chose the lesser of the two devils, which makes sense. The job of a CEO is to keep the company floating...Now whether this tactic will work or not...well, it got many of you to buy the n8 early to get the update...so it might work again in the future...maybe
Yes there's heaps of problems, yes you've worked hard for your money, YES YOU'RE SUPER DUPER ANGRYYYY...but that won't change the tactic at Nokia. So take it down a notch, go ahead and vent your frustrations and anger (in a sensible way...). IT IS NOKIA'S FAULT, but they gotta do what's right for them...
Hoping you all have the best of days ahead...

Hey Jerspa!!
I think we can agree that symbian is dead. it's not the future. We should've seen it coming, i mean...like you said years and years but that only produced a still unfinished product. I think meego's the future.yes it's not dual core or has a super duper awesome plus and multipled amoled screen. but the clear black display is awesome when comboed with a normal amoled. no complaints there. I doubt a duo core/quad core is that important for a mobile (ok my point of view). The only thing i'd miss is the 1080i vids. but games and other apps...i'm gonna stick with my laptop/computer.
Now i'll wait for a meego with 1080i vid +30fps caf, xenon flash, and usb otg. note, that's MY dream phone...mine, not anyone elses...
oh and a good battery of course
First off: I didnt claim that symbian is dead.
Then why i rant here?
Answer:
My last phone were 3720 classic, it were fine working phone. Everything worked as expected without bugs.
Now when i take the N8 from my pocket which is premium phone and 3x more expensive than 3720 classic, the 2 first months were horrible. Everyday that "insert sim" "phone rebooting" "program crashed" stuff. Then Pr1.1 came, which still didnt provided the support. PR1.2 fixed the problems with email etc. That were only corporate stuff.
So lets talk about those leaked vids about PR2.0:
In february we saw allready working splitscreen qwerty and draggable HS + new browser. <- less than 4 months from the delivery date to market. That was impressive, but it isnt anymore since it takes 6 months to deliver that damn update. Thats unacceptable.
Lets look the PR2.0 press release in Conversations:
http://conversations.nokia.com/2011/04/12/announcing-symbian-anna-aka-pr2/
Now lets pick up the cherries:
Enhanced Browser (v7.3): <- This is new
Enhanced Ovi Maps (v3.06): <- This is allready newer
Enhanced Ovi Store (v2.06.xx) >- Same for here
Enhanced Social (v1.3) <- Same for here
So as you can see, wheres the all time spend? theres nothing new, Nokia is really lettings us like without clothes to middle of antartica with S^3 phones, the support for this is horrible.
Theres no way that any of PR team or Dev team can defend this situation until they let the iron curtains down and show us the one fact: Why it takes so long? What is wrong? AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MAKE IT BETTER?
As we seen above, Skyee's team aint working at the social team, nor in maps team nor in ovi store team.
So while i debunked the all "we are working hard" claims, theres really nothing that can explain the delay.
Funny fact is that S40 phones are getting the same functionalities as S^3 so why would anybody buy this over priced N8?
I mean, Compare N8 to C6-01 that phone is 2.5X cheaper than N8. Still the N8 doesnt have ANY extra that would justify the price?. This also the thing why i am very angry.
When Comparing to E7 and N8, E7 is in lower stage in the portfolio pyramid and still its more worth, it has more functionalities than N8, same price.In the S^3 phones, N8 is the loser. Nothing really supports the price.
Also when i bought the N8, i skipped the N95 and N97* because i saw those via friends, i know that those got problems. So i hoped so much that the S^3 would be new symbian, rewritten and a os that have rid off the same old failures that N95 and N97* got in software quality.
Damn it, everything were even worse than those phones, even small basic functionalities are missing here and there. This so half baked product, Even the MP3 player is mising a EQ <- A basic function, been on phones for many years. Even N95 and N97* have that LMAO.
Theres really nothing new in this Anna update, this is why the stocks goes down, this why the sales wont go up. S^3 is the total failure in nokias history, how it can be, that the S^3 phones are in 3rd generation which fails in SOFTWARE QUALITY.

I guess you've seen my latest announcement of the countries we've just published. So, if you are in Italy, Taiwan or Turkey, you can have a look for your updates.
- 059D8G5 N8 Hungary: The update is already available - please check in OviSuite or via the software update client in your phone.
Skyee Hi, thanks for your answer but my phone is password Hungary but bought in Greece, if we pass to Anna through the ovi suites will miss the Greek language, so I'm asking if you know when it will come through or if local OTA Why is the only way of installation without loss of the Greek language.
Thanks and waiting your reply soon -
E6 Back to Symbian Anna is a Popular Request
Nokia
Can we get an update back to Symbian Anna while Symbian Belle comes out without all the faults mention below?
Try it for a week and see the customers demand,
Please [-O< ,
We're loyal customers as an average this is the fifth device for each user,
I'm planning to sell the current and buy a new without the updateOK, Nokia, just give us Anna functionality then (and a bit more).
At least make Belle look and function like Anna regarding notifications etc. and keep Belle under the hood. There is nothing wrong with Belle performance-wise.
However, to be honest Belle's (visual) notification concept, especially for new Emails, sucks - and blows at the same time!
Therefore, as there is no proper visual Email notification I often have Nokia Mail as a "homescreen" so I can directly see new emails. I am working with the home, email, contacts and calendar buttons to navigate between the main apps I need most. So, basically all I do request are proper, professional notifications, both for Email and Calendar.
I barely use more than two or three (of the six) home screens. Nokia Maps, Camera, Nokia City Lens, Opera Mini and Opera Mobile, Quickoffice. That’s one homescreen. I would like both Nokia Mail and Calendar to have fullscreen homescreen functionality - one homescreen each dedicated to Nokia Mail and Calendar plus the clock and date, email and calendar homescreen app from Nokia Anna for the E6's “home” screen. That would be awesome.
Cheers,

Symbian anna homescreen on belle device?
hello everybody!
Is there a possibility to get an symbian anna homescreen on symbian belle OS (E7-00)?
I have tryed numerous themes but all they do is change color and icons in my menus, but not the home screen.
Thank you!None of the themes I've seen do that. Bear in mind that not all themes change all icons etc, and most certainly do not change the font. Not sure why you would want a Symbian Anna style homescreen when you're running Belle......Belle looks much cleaner in my opinion, but each to their own.
