View Full Version : No attachments in email?

I don't use the 770's email very much; normally I VNC to my desktop email instead. Sometimes, however, it is useful to forward an email to my 770, for example if I have an email with a complex URL in it, and I want to open that URL directly in the 770's browser (as opposed to in a browser on the VNC server).

When I try this, I find that the forwarded message, which should be an attachment, is missing; in other words I get an email with headers as expected, but no body.

More generally I think I can remember other cases where the 770 email hasn't shown the attachments that I would expect.

So: is this a known problem / has anyone else seen this?

Thanks - Neil

I dont use the inbuilt email app, lol.
But if you must use email on the n770, try gmail or other web based clients. they seem to work fine for me :)

Seems to work for me now after the april flash update. Attachments that were not visible are now... YMMV

Coolty: thanks for the suggestion, but I don't see how that could help me to read stored email, and prepare a reply, when I'm offline. Could it?

Thanks. I'm waiting for the next update, since I presume that will come shortly to fix the timezone problem, but it's good to know that they are likely to fix this email problem.
