    Hi everyone. I just got a Nokia 770 and am in the process of setting it up. I'm lucky that in my job over the past bunch of years I've worked in a Unix environment, so I'm familiar with the non-DOS world. But there's one thing about the set up of the 770 that I haven't quite figured out yet, having to do with email.

    I set up one email account (mine), and it's working just fine. I then when to set up another, and for this one I left the password blank. The Nokia wizard let me finish this without error, but I can't figure out how to access this other email account. Am I right in assuming that the 770 email app does support multiple accounts? If so, can they be set up with a blank entry in the password field so that a password entry is required when opening that account? If the answers are "yes", then how to I launch the email app using the desired account?

    It basically automatically downloads a copy of the e-mail from all of the accounts you have setup and tosses it into the Inbox folder. There are some other clients you would probably want to use.

    Ah, thanks. I will look take a look here for other email clients. Are there any to consider which are not in the software section of this website?

    I would just go to Maemo.Org, and look around. There are a lot of cool applications. I tried another email client previously, but had no luck with it. Maybe, it was still in development when I tried it. I don't remember. I also installed pine (for the sake of the good ol' days), but have used it only once or twice.

    anyways, take a look here:
