I have been using mobile email for many years now and most recently been I have been using Nokias new beta email service. I am not 100 % sure why, but I really enjoy it. It is more or less reliable (keep in mind it is still in beta) though it has stopped working for me to a point that I had to remove it from my phone and reinstall it at least 3 times. I have also had it lose 4 days worth of email at one point and it never showed back up.
Nokia is moving right along with their offering, most notably for me is they have added the ability to retrieve email from multiple addresses now.
There are a few things I would like to see added to the service.
1. I am dying to have the ability to send email from something other then my @gmail address (I dump all my email into Gmail so that’s how I check it on the phone), like from my @BrilliantExpos.com address which when I’m on the Gmail website I can email from there. The Gmail Java app also sends email from my default address I have set in Gmail which is my @BrilliantExpos.com address.
2. I would like the ability to have Nokia Email beta active on more then one handset at a time. I don’t know if anyone else has noticed this or maybe it’s just me, but I’m not able to have email automatically downloaded to more then one handset at a time.
3. I would like Nokia (a mobile phone company) to offer a mobile site for their Nokia Email website
This is all I can think of right now sitting at my dining room table on my day off but I know there are more.
What changes or additions would you like to see to Nokia Email beta?
By the way Nokia KEEP YOUR EMAIL SERVICE FREE. It is something that should come stock on your handset like the old email app you have on there now. It enhances the device and should not be a premium service. Nokia you guys make phones primarily not email programs. Sell phones not email apps.
