I've just got my new N900. I'm scared to ask this question in case the answer is as I suspect, but anyway...
How do I make the email client download all my email so I can read it offline?
With my N810, Nokia had apparently decided that no-one should ever be allowed to read email on a train or plane and you had to be connected to wifi to use it. This led me to the utterly absurd lengths of porting the dovecot email server to Maemo, running that on the device, and then writing a giant pile of perl scripts to synchronise the email on my server with the device. It worked, just about, but I was really looking forward to getting a N900 where, I assumed, Nokia would have woken up to the absurdity of assuming people were permanently online and have written a proper email application with basic features implemented. So please, someone tell me I was right? Please?
