I tried following the steps on your page “How to: Set up push email on Nokia N900″, but seem to be unable to activate “Push Email”.
While registering, I get a message that my cellular telephone number is not valid.
When I click on the N900 graphic, I get a message saying my phone is already equipped with the necessary software, and to set up the account from my N900.
When I complete that, it does not ask anywhere for my phone number – how can it Push email?

Thanks for getting back to me!!

John

Hey,
I already setup a nokia messagin account on the website and added two email accounts. Now when I add the Nokia Messaging account to my N900 I don’t see any of the email accounts under the Nokia Messaging section.

I also tried to add a email account from inside the Nokia Messaging settings, but the account is added a independent one and not as a sub-account of Nokia Messaging.

Have you come accross any such issue?

Thanks,
-Debjit

Hi,

I have to say that Nokia Messaging sucks big time on N900. I was using it on my E71 up to a few days ago with no problem but I haven’t been able to set it up on N900 for past few days. Initially I couldn’t even get connected to Nokia servers using my account details but apparently there were some problems with Nokia Messaging a few days ago so no complaints about the phone here.

Since that started working I can finish the whole set up process and I have my Nokia Messaging account available but it doesn’t sync with Nokia servers (even though it prompts for my password every now and then) and my e-mail accounts linked with Nokia Messaging are not available. If I try to add a mailbox for Nokia Messaging it just ads a normal account in general e-mail. So I tried to set up a new account on Nokia web page but when I select N900 it gives the message “Your mobile phone already has the latest Nokia Messaging software installed.” After that I thought that I’d give it a go with a different e-mail that is not linked with my Nokia Messaging account. Still no luck – it just adds a normal, extra e-mail account.

I know that some of you managed to make it work so does anyone know what I’m doing wrong? My account is definitely working as I can log in to Nokia Messaging on the web and it was working fine up to a few days ago on my E71. I’m running Maemo 10.2010.19-1 (global version, not country specific though) Also, not sure if that’s important as it’s an automatic setting but the server name in the account settings is: em1x-236.lhr.messaging.nokia.com

Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help.

hey, i can assume that you’ve downloaded from the ‘extra-testin’ and from the ‘extra-devel’ some applications, you have to flash youre device, search for ‘flash n900′ at google, look for the maemo.talk result, follow the instructions there, you are hopefuly all-set.

It just doesn’t work for me. It doesn’t push email. Unless I select auto-connect and I’m manually connected (because It doesn’t auto connect) It doesn’t download email. Is the same sh*t that to use email accounts on the phone. I’m about to drop this phone….

In some regions the Nokia Messaging option is not available. If this happens for you please vote for this bug: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8085

Hi Nirave,

We’re using MS Exchange 2003 server but have no static IP address. What would be the simplest way to set an N900 up?
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer

Hi,

well when it comes to configuring nokia messagin in N900 i am not getting Nokia Messaging in the list of service providers. I use nokia messaging easily on my nokia 5230 and 97mini but somehow it doesnt show the option in N900. On checking talk.maemo forums i found out many ppl are facing this issue. I tried everything from changing sim to reboots nothing works, I am using the latest firmware and messaging is also supported in my region. Any idea how do i get my phone to list Nokia Messaging?

Just followed the steps, very easy. I received an email saying it is a trial. Is this not a free service? I read it was, but did it change in the last few days?

I have attached screenshots to the above post in order to show how to do it. Where it says service provider, click on the option there and Nokia Messaging is there.

Don’t use the link they provide as it doesn’t work for Maemo.

I am not sure regarding synchronising hotmail contacts, I will have a look and come back with a post if I find anything.

Happy New Year from all @ Mobile Users.

hey, thanks for that info, but…
I had no problem with part 1 but when I put my email and pass, there is NO next button to select. I can only press previous.
