All other browsers accept the certificate though so it's valid and both MfE and OWA work with n900 just fine.

You would think that NOKIA would not trip on such essentials as MfE......


Can you have multiple exchange accounts

N950 (V 1.2011.34-2 PR_RM680)


Gmail worked badly to say the least until I had to manually set the incoming and outgoing server settings, encryption and ports. That should be corrected.

MfE works every now and then, I guess that has issues with some settings too...


Otherwise the client is real nice and fresh. Shame that the above faults are pretty critical from the normal users' point of view.

(most probably you already know those from the meego thread, but I add them here for completeness)

1. No notifications for new mails in folders other than the inbox. E.g. in the case there are filters set in the server.

I cannot remember anymore how is it working in w34 SW, but if you mark a folder as favorite you should get notifications of new messages for IMAP accounts, for MfE that feature was implemented later.

2. Issue with the contacts that have more than one number in one field type. e.g. if one contact has 2 numbers set as mobile will not get the second number synchronised back to the server.

PS: checked with N950 beta2

This is MfE protocol restriction. The Contacts structure defined in the protocol specification has only one mobile phone field. The same with address and other
fields. Protocol supports up to 3 email addresses fields, so if you will define
the fourth email, it will be lost too.

Also, mails still are present on the server even though deleted on the N950.

Is this problem only present on the beta2 firmware, and not on later firmware versions?

Are you using always-up-to-date mode(IMAP IDLE), sync internal(e.g 20 mins) or manual sync ?

The messages will be moved/deleted in the next sync, if in always-up-to-date mode they will be moved right away but will only appear as new if the new folder is favorite, if not they will appear next time you visit the folder or do a full sync.

Where are you getting this message ? During setup or inside email app ?

1. It is possible to remove a favorite folder, but no way to add another folder to the existing favorites.

Humm ? Click in the folders icon and check the star next to the folder name, this interface is not very intuitive IMO, but was already improved in later releases.

Looks like some weird bug, it should work without any issues in sales image.

Copy&paste is only available in the composer in 1.0, stay tuned of improvements :)

1. MfE supports Zimbra and Exchange in addition to supporting device provisioning. Thank you thank you thank you! You have no idea how frustrating it was that I could not use the n900 for my office email.
2. Favorite folders and combined email list: F***ing amazing. Thank you!!
3. Swipe for next and previous email, zoom in and out on email: Cool, me likey!

Thanks for the feedback.
