Ovi Mail setup utility debuts

Published by Steve Litchfield at 8:26 UTC, September 30th 2009

Nokia Beta Labs has today introduced an 'Ovi Mail Setup” application', allowing anyone to sign-up for an Ovi Mail account directly from a S60 device. The same utility is being built into the upcoming E72 and into the new N97 firmware. If you already have an Ovi account then it will provision Ovi Mail and configure the email client already on the device. 

Beta Labs note that this is not an email client. "You will continue using the existing email client on your device. If you’re already successfully using Ovi Mail on your device you don’t need to install this."

In other related news, Ovi Mail has also launched an update to its webmail interface. "We have simplified the navigation on the left and made it more consistent from page to page. And we’re trying to keep up with the global expansion of Ovi Mail and have added 4 additional languages: Thai, Simplified Chinese, Russian and Finnish."

So we have native Messaging application on the device, Nokia Messaging, Ovi Mail, Ovi Mail setup utility and Mail for Exchange on the same phone? Should I use Messaging or Nokia Messaging? Which one is default, system mail? Does Exchange integrate into one of them or is it a separate mail application? Is Ovi mail an app or service? I'm completely lost...
Maybe you could post some explanation on Allaboutsymbian about using mail on Nokia devices - what is what, which one to use when etc.?
