No IMAP folders on the device...

Despite following these instructions, there are no additional folders showing on the device. I've got a feeling that messages over 3 days old just don't show up and therefore the folders aren't there either?

What does this offer that the default messaging client doesn't? Apart from looking prettier? Set to sync at "soonest" and it's really hit and miss. It's not always up to date with the actual mailbox and therefore it would be easier and more accurate to just set the default client to check every 15 mins - which then actually happens.

Not convinced I'm going to stick with this for much longer - and I certainly couldn't justify paying for it.

Blackberry's the way to go I guess if proper push email's what you want?

sapporobaby I have tried and tried but I think that Apple's MobileMe is not compatible with Nokia Messaging when using IMAP.

I can get a few folders to show up, but the remainder simply are not there.

neilhoskins Interestingly, I have an Ovi Mail account set up on Profimail, and for the last couple of weeks it's been showing an error saying that the server doesn't support IMAP IDLE. Maybe Nokia are going to only allow the full use of Ovi Mail via Nokia Messaging...?

doesnt work

I followed the instruction step by step, but i dont see my facebook label in my phone. What gives?

sapporobaby I agree with unregistered that ProfiMail is great. I have it set up with several accounts and it just works. Nokia Mail is another half assed attempt by Nokia. It is rubbish for any serious user.

Unregistered Great article - nice and straight forward!

Personally, I'm loving Nokia Messaging, it works great with my Google Apps email address on my N95. It's not perfect, but when you're getting push/imap email for free you can't really complain!

It'll be interesting to see how Nokia manage to charge for this and keep their user number up though...

Unregistered still doesn't win me over. i have been using profimail for some months now on the 5800 and works flawlessly (well, the rendering of web links leave much to be desired but for the sake of reading and receiving emails on the go, it is all good)

i find nokia messaging quite slow in the UI, and for some reason kept downloading my messages when i had exited the program already. probably a problem with my setup but didn't bother to figure it out until it becomes much more easier to configure, or profimail loses me

sapporobaby I tried setting up IMAP folder but it does not let me do it, so I will stay with my ME.COM account from Apple. It works and never fails.

williamsardar Nokia Messaging is all very well... but they're going to start charging for the service in the future so that puts me right off. I've settled with redirecting all mail into Gmail, labelling mail from different accounts separately, and using the Gmail Java S60 app.
