it is a free trial anywhere there is no branded carrier offering. if a carrier in your area starts offering an Ovi Push email offering, your trial no longer works, and you'll need to get it from the carrier

Chris, are you using the phone with a sim card inserted? My N900 didnt show Nokia Messaging when there was no sim inside but after I put a sim in, it shows up.

Yes. I'm using the device SIM free. I'm boycotting the carriers at the moment. I do use a personal hot spot from a carrier, but that will end soon too. (Cash is also boycotting my wallet...) But I reflashed my firmware and Nokia Messaging now works. So no SIM is required.

Nokia Messaging already embedded in the N900.

Tap 'New Account' and choose Nokia Messaging from the list.
Then just signin to your Nokia Messaging account and you're good to go.

I got mine working fine by doing that.

worked like a dream for me :) - and wow i had alot of crap mail! - so tidied it up too :)

Re: yahoo - push webmail to n900
 
sorry for being an idiot.

but exactly how does one set up email on the n900?

i have a yahoo email address.
i have registered my number with the nokia push-mail service, and recieved the text.
i have not done anything with the text because the n900 apparently already has the software installed.

but, whenever i try to set up the email on the n900 i get the following message, regardless of whether i select IMAP or POP when i input the details.

"Unable to connect to pop.yahoo.xx. Server name or port number may be incorrect."

"Unable to connect to smtp.yahoo.xx. Server name or port number may be incorrect."

exactly what does one have to do?

Nokia messaging ins already on the N900. When you create your account just select the service provider is Nokia massaging. no need to go to the website. it will then ask you for your email address of your account on Yahoo and its password. Thats it.

Re: yahoo - push webmail to n900
 
done that, get the errors listed above.

i'm doing something wrong, and i have no idea what.
