Cellular Phone Forum / Manufacturers / Nokia / August 2005Email client recommendation
I have a Nokia 3100 from which I run Reqwireless Emailviewer to read my corporate email. It is faultless if a litle slow but Reqwireless seem to have ceased support and no longer sell the software. I now wish to get a new phone with a slighly bigger screen and was wondering what the included email clients are like on the newer Nokias. I am not too interested in using the phone as a camera and my main requirements are good phone, email and screen quality. Any recommendations? (doesn't have to be Nokia either).

I use a 6600 which supports POP3 and IMAP very well. You can have more than one mailbox and download only headers to save cost. You use your network providers SMTP for outgoing mail and your email ISP for incoming. The 6600 has a decent size screen too which makes reading email much easier than on your 3100.

When you say use "your network providers SMTP" for outgoing does this mean I would have to use a different mail account than corporate one? I suppose I am asking if the recipient of an email from me will see my normal email address?

Unless your 'corporate' mail server allows you to send mail from from any Internet connection then you have to use your network providers SMTP because you are operating in their network and it will allow you to send mail using your own email address.

I should have said earlier that the Reqwireless emailviewer does its stuff (for me) over GPRS and I dont have a ISP as such. I have a contract O2 mobile phone account. I can only connect my phone to the internet over GPRS. Will the connection I make through the O2 GPRS allow me to send from my University email account? I assume this is an authenticated SMTP server as I can do this from Outlook Express on a laptop connected through a wireless Tmobile hotspot thingy.

Regards > Jeremy Yes, but a point to note is many providers are blocking the smtp port from sending unless you are physically "connected" through them. But, if you can already send via a hotspot as you say, then it seems your university hasn't blocked the smtp port:) That may change in the future of course. As for me, I had a hell of a time with my provider, could recieve on my mobile no problems, but couldn't send. I ended up opening a $5mth dialup account elsewhere just so I could have an open smtp server to send through on my mobile:) >>>When you say use "your network providers SMTP" for outgoing does this >>>mean I would have to use a different mail account than corporate one?

Regards > Jeremy You should be able to send all your mail from your 02 mobile account when on your phone. It will send you University mail as that, so it shouldn't make any difference. I send all my emails through which ever ISP I am connected to at the time and don't have a problem. My emails that are replied to still go to the appropriate email address.
