What is Nokia Messaging?

Apologies for this most simple question but I am new to Nokia and new to NM. (I have an E55 but I assume that this applies to any device that uses NM.)
What is the difference beween setting up a connection to my POP3 mail account manually on the phone, and setting it up on Nokia Messaging? I realise that if I want to have messages delivered to my phone I need to use NM, but are there other differences?

Hi,
Official FAQ:
http://email.nokia.com/account/faq.action
Nokia Messaging makes email easy and mobilizes
consumer email across a range of Nokia S60 devices. Nokia Messaging
enables users to quickly set up, access, and use their email on their
Nokia devices through a service that is optimized for mobile email.
Automatic delivery of email using the IMAP idle protocol
Support for Yahoo! Mail, Google Mail, Windows Live Hotmail, Ovi Mail, and POP/IMAP email accounts
Support for Google Apps, Yahoo! Small Business, and other vanity domain email accounts
Support for up to 10 email accounts
Support for HTML email
Available on 10+ Nokia S60 devices and localized in 20+ languages
Support for subfolders in IMAP email accounts
Easy email setup using only an email address and password for almost all ISPs
Efficient data usage
Intuitive client interface navigation built around top mobile email functions
So the basic difference is that you'll get push email functionality to your existing email account. And you add multiple email accounts to your nokia messaging account and then you'll get the latest emails from all added accounts to your phone.

What went wrong with Nokia Messaging?

What went wrong with Nokia Messaging?
In the beginning of this year I used Nokia Messaging on E71 and I really loved it!
Since this autumn I am using it on my new N97 and I am confronted with totally different experience:
- the application is very slooooow..
- its unreliable - very ofter emails arrive with hours delay, a sync may take up to minutes
- its very very buggy - truncated icons, diplay randomly jumping up and down, when scrolling.
- very bad HTML display of emails - tiny (unreadable) default font and no wrap to screen when zooming - I thought emails were for reading?
- many, many usability issues
I just cannot believe it - How has Nokia managed to convert once such a good piece of software into such incredible disaster?
Recently an update was published - I tried it immediately... To my big disappointment it contains all the same bugs and introduces new ones..
How is this possible? What is happening at Nokia?

Also my N86 as the same problem.
And in global setting Nokia deleted the option to read always in HTML.
And there is not any option to write html Mails

What's the point of Nokia Messaging?

Is it just an added point of failure or is there something it can do, that wouldn't be possible to do with out it?

I don't agree with you. Besides RIM BB and Apple, the Nokia messaging has a wrong approaching to solve the push email tech challenge.
Do you think it is a good idea to add one more server to connect meanwhile your client just need to check your email server? What happens if nokia messaging not recognize your password but your mail server and password are OK?
If you do those things seamless to your customer like RIM, well do it, but not like actual Nokia did.
Additionally, all the error messages that you get on a wrong login process have instructions about check tech things that you can check because you just have and exit and a login option.
Sorry, I am a Nokia user since 4 years and I am pretty sure that something inside the strat is wrong because its takes to much time to keep Nokia on top of the market.

E72 'Add to my Nokia Messaging account' VS Create ...

Hi,
When adding an email account such as GMAIL my Nokia E72 gives me 2 options:
Add to my Nokia Messaging account
Create a separate mailbox that uses manual delivery
Again, this is an UI improvement: There is no contextual help or information regarding both options...
What are the pros and cons of using either options? Also, Vodafone proposer a similar application to connect to my mail accounts, do you know if it is any better?
Thanks,
Yvsn

There is no cost for using Nokia Messaging. It does say that it is a trial version but unofficially it appears it will be a never ending trial, and anyway you won't suddenly get charged for using it.
You can use NM and Exchange and any other email clients at the same time although NM may say you already have software to receive mail but just select yes and it will carry on with the set up. You can set it to autostart or manual. I use 'Email on 3' push software but have identical accounts set up in NM which I can manually start and it will download the same emails - I use it if I need or want to see the email using html which '3' doesn't at the moment.

Open letter to Nokia Messaging dev team: imap idle...

Hi,
I would like to ask the developers of Nokia Messaging if they are aware of the fact themailclient in the E72 isn't supporting Imap IDLE anymore.
Before, in the E71 for example, there was indeed a timesetting in the native client BUT this was used when the client got disconnected. for example:client connected > phonecall arrives, client disconnects > phonecall ends > client connects after 5 minutes (or any other timespan accoridng to the settings) and STAYS connected.
Nokia Messaging: if you set it up at 5 minutes it checks every 5 minutes for mail. This is NOT 'idling' on a server. 'Idle' means in this case 'stay connected, just sit there and wait for messages')
the specs on your site CLEARLY state for the E72:
Supported protocols: IMAP4 (with idle), Nokia Messaging, Microsoft ActiveSync, POP3, SMTP
This means that the product that i have bought IS NOT DOING what you promise. I could probably solve with start using Nokia Messaging but this and was never my intention. I just the phone to do what it is supposed to do: imap idle without the use of Nokia Messaging as stated in its specs (as it was before by the way).
WOULD APPRECIATE AN ANSWER!
Called Nokia support in Belgium. No answer from them.

We are far from being Nokia enemies. If anything, we are giving them free feedback. In corporate circles, concerned companies pay millions of bucks to the likes of Pricewaterhouse, etc to do strategic consulting, ie to tell them what really is right or wrong with their company, products, etc. In the new millenium, the internet and tools such as forums provide similar service, only at a fraction of the cost and a damningly honest one too!
My take on the matter is this: sure Nokia staff are reading these forums and laughing at us 'idiots'. The 'noise-makers' are few and far between. Nokia also has their die-hard fans (some people have never used any of the advanced features on their phones so would know little) as well as their own 'plants' (ppl who are Nokia employees tasked with dropping feel-good stories in various threads. I've done enough corporate consulting to know this ;-)
The same person who was supporting Nokia in this thread also had an extended argument with me in the afore-mentioned thread. Some people think someone having 300 odd contacts is a power-user (I have in excess of 1,300 contacts, 90% current and active). Some people questioned my desired to be able to snooze an alarm for a user defined period (that Nokia lover accused me for wanting "more bells & whistles than Fort Knox").
The last example is something simple that can implemented. My Palm circa 2003 had that feature. Say if an alarm sounds for a set event, but you are still in a meeting/busy, wouldn't it be gud to be able to snooze the alarm for a specified period, say 40 mins? At the moment, the E72 only lets you set ONE global snooze period which applies for all alarms.
The way I see it Nokia with its so-called business series of devices have 2 probs - (1) it has many bugs and high-end features that do no work as promoted / advertised, and (2) it lacks many simple features that cheaper/older phones have. Can't be too difficult for those Finns to decipher this, can it??
And what would happen to Nokia? Well, I think its getting so big headed in recent times that its alienating a lot of serious / old-time fans. In todays market, there is great variety of choice. If one is to get buggy and ill-designed products anyway then why pay premium dollars for a Finnish lemon when you can settle for a similar lemon (and at times with almost enuff bells & whistles to challenge Fort Knox) from say China, at a fraction of the price. And to think that many of these Chinese clones today ship with dual SIM capability as well as a (fuzzy no doubt) TV monitor!
My advice to folks out there, please do buy a Nokia if you are in the market for a cheap, no-frills phone to be used as a spare phone or on those mountain camping trips when a gud flashlight is required. But if you are looking for a serious BIZNESS SMARTPHONE, the E72 is definately not it. Still love you, darling!
There ought to be laws out there on the use of the term 'smartphone'

Nokia Messaging has a life of it's own.

Installed Nokia Messaging on my 5800XM a couple of weeks ago, and have struggled ever since to get it to work how I want, and am just about to bin the thing. But thought I'd make a last-ditch plea to see whether anyone can help me set it up the way I want.
I don't want an "always-on" function: I want to control when it synchronises. So I want to run the app when I want to, collect messages when I ask it to, and not do anything unless I command it. But it has a life of it's own ! My settings:
1. General: manual application start.
2. When to sync: (1) Days - nothing selected (2) Sync while roaming - always ask
3. Options - offline
I thought, with these settings, I ought to be able to manually sync by selecting Send/Receive. And so it does. But it also starts up automatically (if I turn it off it simply starts up again uncommanded); it synchronises even when the app isn't running; and the data transfer indicator shows it's trying to do something even when the app is turned off and the setting is offline.
In short I don't trust it not to start initiating a data transfer when I don't want it to.
Can anyone offer any clues as to what might be going wrong here ? If not, useful as it is, it's the Uninstall option soon !

ok just found out more info on this problem here is the link for anyone interested.

N95 in-car use - what are Nokia playing at?!

I have for some time been using a Nokia 6680 in my car, using a ck-7w car kit and a cr-27 holder. This works great, I have handsfree calling, I can charge my phone whenever I get in the car by putting it in the cradle & I have tomtom 5 mobile which works great, even muting the radio to give directions etc because it all integrates nicely.
Now Nokia have brought out the N95 and I thought great, satnav and phone in one device. So I have upgraded.
Guess what? Nokia N-series devices are "consumer" devices which don't get a special in-car holder. You what?!
The N95 works fine with the ck-7w using bluetooth, but it doesn't have a pop-port so you can't use the ck7w cable. The only way to use it in the car is with a generic holder and a cigarette lighter charger. There is no custom holder for it. To be honest I would be happy even if all the holder did was charge the phone and hold it - I'm happy with bluetooth connection to the car kit.
This has to be the most brain dead thinking from Nokia I have ever seen. I have been using Nokia phones with car kits since the 2010, 2140, nk702 (6130), 6110, 6210, 6310 & 6680. Like I said, my 6680 has tomtom mobile 5 sat nav installed. But guess what, the N95, a phone with BUILT IN SAT NAV has no in-car charger cradle, so you can't use it neatly in a car?!?!

[quote]Can anyone who has this working explain the process to get a bluetooth connection from the N95 to the CK-7W? I just seem not to be able to pair the two.[/quote]
Hi, I've got this working. I have a holder for the 6680 in place using cable connection as well. Haven't tried to connect them both at the same time, but I guess that's not what you want.
To get this working. In my situation, the carkit when using my 6680 always works. I don't need to have the keys. For the bluetooth connection I do have to have the power on (turn the key until you can play your radio, onboard lights turn on, etc.). After you turn on the power, let your N95 search for a new bluetooth device. In my situation, it found the CK-7W in just a few seconds. Then pair with the device using the 0000 password.Message Edited by jarnodewit on 29-Apr-200702:30 PM
People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.

Nokia messaging running in background even when tu...

So, Nokia messaging runs in backgorund even when turned off.
I noticed that the phone (E63) searches wlan with no reason and connectes with known ones, untillI discovered that default acces point in Nokia messaging was WLAN. When I changed the APN to other, the phone stops searching for wlan. The logical conclusion is that Nokia messaging can never be trully turned off, at least on my phone.
Why is this happening? The only way to shut up the application is uninstalling.
Solved!

Thanks guys, problem solved.
Still, I must say that it's kind of sick issue. What is the benifit of sync when the application does'n run?
If I exit the application I really mean that I don't want to use it, otherwise I choose "hide".

Nokia Messaging doesn't work with vanity domains

Nokia Messaging's "simplified" setup means I can't get it to work with my vanity domain. I can't get it to ask me what server it should use, it just complains that it can't connect - which isn't very surprising when it doesn't give me any opportunity to tell it which server to use.
I have emails from my domian forwarded to my Gmail account. The Gmail account itself works fine with Nokia Messaging, because the automatic setup works. The problem is that I want the reply address to be [email protected], not [email protected] Entering [email protected] as the address means Nokia Messaging insists on trying for some non-existent mail server for mydomain.com and doesn't give me the opportunity to enter the details for Gmail.
Does anybody know of a way to enter the details manually?
Assuming it's not possible to enter the details directly, not only is this a major problem for people who forward mail from their vanity domians, but it's potentially a serious security problem too. In its attempts to find the right server, Nokia Messaging must be connecting to some mail server somewhere and trying to log in with my username and password. Who knows what server it decided to try? Who knows who now has my login information? It's bad enough that Nokia store your login credentials, but it's just plain dangerous that they think it's OK to send them to random servers on the internet as they try to find the right one.
Why isn't there an "advanced" option so I can just set it up myself? Why, even after it has failed to connect, can't I just enter the required details myself?
Seriously Nokia, it doesn't take a genius to work out that if you never ask for the right server to connect to, your service is not going to work for anything but the most straightforward cases. You can't guess it right every time and when you try and guess you leak people's login credentialsto who-knows-who.

"Reply-to" address should be a feature of Nokia Messaging. I too have my work email forwarded to gmail to be able to use it with Nokia Messaging.
I have requested this feature since the app was on beta. and i'm doing it now again.
Maybe if we all request it they will take it seriously, but here is the wrong place to do it.
All feedback about Nokia Messaging should be written to: [email protected]
Last time I wrote to that email they replied asking for more details about what i was requesting. I'm not sure if they will do it or not, but at least their questions made me feel they would.
Thank you for clicking on the Green button with the white Star for Kudos!!

Nokia Messaging error

Hello.
I have a problem with my Nokia N97. When I'm installing Nokia Messaging, everything is ok. But when I'm clicking "Mailbox" in Messaging, and I want to configure new e-mail account, there is an error: "Messaging: Feature not supported".
I tried uninstalling Nokia Messaging, and then install it from Nokia website and from Software Update too.
Do you know what's wrong?

Nokia Messaging memory usage

Hello,
Couple of points related to Nokia Messaging
memory usage. Nokia Messaging stores, by default, 2kb of each message
on the device. Even if you have hundreds of emails, they don't take up
much space until you start getting into attachments.
The
deleted items folder in Nokia Messaging does not clear itself
automatically in this release, so if you've been deleting a lot of
emails on the device and are encountering issues with memory, go into
that folder and choose options to empty it.
We are
investigating the memory consumption on the N97 with Nokia Messaging,
as some of you have reported. The reason we don't offer message
storage on the memory card is that removing of the memory card with the
messages stored on there could cause some serious issues with correctly
syncing your email.
We do hear you on the calls for
storage somewhere other than the C drive. The amount of space that the
emails should take up on your device is minimal, but we are open to
feedback and fixing problems as they arise.
Message Edited by davisfields on 13-Aug-2009 10:46 PM

As netoak stated in the above post. My problem with N97 is the same, I have a number of applications that needs to be installed on (E) Mass Storage. By running these applications and have a message comes through. Be it, text, picture, multimedia, it will get stored on the phone memory which eventually gets full and can only be deleted as it cannot be copied or moved (connect to PC back up, delete original from phone memory and then restore from PC to Mass Storage is a royal joke) to Mass Storage.
What good is a flagship phone that meant to be rich for multimedia when a couple of e-mails or messages with attachments will render it's useless.
So if these issues below are not looked at I'm soon to trade my N97 in for something else, and neither are my friends and family going to get N97 because they already know that their non-N97 phones works fine and mine is having loads of issues.
Surely these can be fixed in the next major update of your firmware?
- Functionality to copy or move selected message from C to E. We're jumping through hoops just to do the most simplest of tasks like moving messages. Inability to move messages and e-mails between these two storage locations is really, really, 1990's and not mobile computer as Nokia trying claim N97 is.
- Settings to be persistent that messages go to E when stuff on E are being used.

E63 + Nokia Messaging + IMAP = Not Syncing Sent

**I originally posted this in the E Series forum, and decided to repost it here as it was more appropriate**
I recently downloaded Nokia Email Messaging, and I am loving the push email. However, I realised today that none of the emails I am sending from my phone are being synced to the IMAP sent folder, instead are being put in a Sent folder on the phone. I have told it to sync sent emails, drafts, and inbox.
Can you please help me with this. If I can't sync my sent emails so I can see them on my laptop as well via IMAP (webmail), then I will revert back to using ProfiMail.
Thanks in advance,
Nathan.

I have the same problem, mine on an E66. I send messages from an IMAP account on Nokia Messaging and the message goes in the Nokia Messaging Sent folder, but this is not sync'd with my email server Sent Items folder.
I even tried selecting the Sent Items folder as one to be sync'd on the Nokia Messaging website (edit settings), but this still didn't make any difference.
I even then tried Moving the messages from the Nokia Messaging Sent folder to the mapped Sent Items folder on the E66, then sync'd again, but still they won't appear on the server Sent Items folder.
I think what Nokia need to add is an option similar to the one on the Outlook configuration where you can select where sent items go - either to the default Outlook folder, or to a specific IMAP folder.

Nokia Messaging, 3 Days Hardcoded!!!

Hi all,
I'm trying to change the 3 days limit in Nokia messaging -> "What to sync" -> "Inbox" -> "Remove older than" option, but I always get: Settings can not be changed!
Now, I tried offline mode, and almost every other combinations but with no success.
I've read that in older versions you could change it, but as a new feature, they hard coded it to 3 day !!!! wth
This is really irritating, does someone has a hack for this? I don't mind modifying the hex values in the application configurations, but at least point me to the right file.
Device: N97
Messaging version: 10.1.0.24 (main)
Thank you,

Dear adviser,
Let me brief you my experiences with Map 3.06 with 5800.
I update it when it's first available in OTA and homepage of Nokia HK( forgot the timing)
Bold horizontal line appeared on map and phone keeps rebooting.
Nokia service centre replaced the LCD screen and revert the original map 3.04 as pre-installed ( massive turnarounds)
I waited for another 2 month and update again.
Again horizontal lines and even vertical line crashing the map during navigation.
I took the phone back to Nokia service center again. Again LCD screen was replaced.
Even the person-in-charge of the Center can't confirm if it's OK to use 3.06 in HKG given the fact that the official website of Nokia HK has published the availability of map 3.06 for months.
About couple weeks ago, I download map3.06 with much hesitations.
So far, no concurrent issues appeared.
As a general user, I felt Nokia is rather weak in optimising 5800 SW:
handicapped of the OS chosen
Keeping delivering NEW problems to users after updates - likely due to the limit and trade-off that the OS can handle
Extremely Poor Communications between SW team with Marketing/CS Center over users experiences
1-Hour repair sucks for smartphones - Most problems come from SW
Cost of servicing is high for Nokia
Finally, I spent more than 100 hours to servicing 5800 over the year past.
I am sure I wouldn't have similar problems with iPhone even though I doubt if I can expect the same after sale services as offered by Nokia.
Both HW & SW engineers from Nokia should visit together and hear the needs from engineering, sales/marketing and even management of the retailers; dealers, service providers etc by the doors; by the windows

Nokia pulled Nokia messaging ?

I have 5800xm vith v40 and i just did a hard reset.
I downloaded the Nokia Messaging V10.2 from software update and i cannot get it work.
After the installation , 2 icons were in the apps folder, one is email set up another is email.
No matter which one i click, it will send me to email setup process and this setup process will add an email account to "messaging Folder " but not "nokia email client"
I am not able to use the same "Nokia Messaging" email client as the one before the hard reset.
Anyone know what happened?
I tried to download nokia messaging from ovi store, email.nokia.com, messaging.nokia.com

It's a worry. The fact is that Nokia can't write good software, at least not so one piece integrates with the rest.
I had the same thing happen so I just use the "E-mail" client inside the default messaging suite, it is primitive but it works fine. I got sick of the idiotic Email setup wizard firing up each time I turned the phone on so I simply deleted it!!! This got rid of the non-functional "Email" client at the same time. Of course, I can't add another mailbox without reinstalling the default email wizard but I don't need to, the one I created with it earlier continues to work fine in the messaging suite.
I don't like the idea of Nokia's new messaging product, I believe that they are caching your email accounts on their own servers and drip feeding them to you when you sync to them. This is NOT the way open software is supposed to work Nokia! This is the Google technique of owning your content! Bad direction guys!
Bearing the above in mind, the only decent solution is to use a quality 3rd party email client. I haven't found a good enough one yet, but there has to be one just around the corner. Perhaps another reader has a suggestion?
