nokia messaging down for everybody
 
this last week, my phone syncs one a day if at all. 95% of mail in my outbox fails to send and lives there forever

my kingdom for a real community imap client

I'm on AT&T FWIW. last email i got was on 8/31. i added one of the accts that are on my nokia msg as a straight up imap on modest - works fine.

nokia msg. has some outstanding push-like abilities. i often get emails on my phone before i se them in thunderbird. but the frequent downtime is a killer. it gets these strange bugs for which there is no fix and nokia support is like a big black hole.

Soooo has anybody called Nokia to complain? Doesn't seem to me that they bother to frequent this place to care about your experiences. (That's what I'm told anyway.)

if you are having problems I reccomend you delete your NM account from the phone and recreate. I was getting no mail last week & being prompted for my password randomly (to no avail). A delete/recreate did the trick.

Re: nokia messaging down for everybody

It's a free service. Use IMAP4/POP3 direct connection and quit yer *****in'. If you're using GMail, imap-idle works and you'll get your email as as fast.

Been slated for server swaps during September for a while. Give it a bit.

Why does Nokia bother with services at all given they're so useless at it. Nokia, stick to giving us solid hardware and leave the services bit to those who have a clue. Dont stop with Ovi files, kill off all the other joker services including Nokia messaging which seems to have a mind of its own.

Re: nokia messaging down for everybody
 
as of about two days ago, it prompted me to reenter my password and was receiving emails.

sent emails still perpetually hang in the outbox, presumably to be sent at the end of the month as per nokia messagings icrap4 protocol

jerryfreak 2010-09-07 17:04

Re: nokia messaging down for everybody
 
and then if i forget to delete them people get a bunch of ancient emails and are like 'huh?'

danramos 2010-09-07 18:30

Re: nokia messaging down for everybody
 
So... what, still nobody's contacted Nokia to complain about these things? It may be free but isn't this some kind of a service offering?

its working here in india atleast. why dont u guys login on email.nokia.com and check if the subscription is still active. had same problem once and it showed trial period expired, had to create another id and it started working.

How I got mines back working was went to nokia messaging website logged in. Trail was still active, I deleted it and reset it back up. Than went to my phone and deleted the account. Reset the account back up on my phone. And I made sure Wifi was on while it was syncing my inbox. Now its back working.

No, but I have called Nokia support for other things and.. well, it wasn't like talking to a wall--it was more like talking to a polite snob. They don't swear and they keep a pleasant tone but what tell you can be insulting and frustrating. Still, you come here to Maemo.org (you know, that's the OS right? ...the OS that CAME bundled with this messaging service and other similar defects) and told (rightfully) that this isn't the place to get support from Nokia nor that Nokia even bothers to read through these forums.

So... why complain here at all? Nokia runs these servers--has anybody called them to see what can be done, given they bungled--er, bundled this onto your devices.
