I would like to know this as well. If the N9 should have a chance in a corporate enviroment it NEEDS a vpn client.

I can't send any message from my imap account. From watching smtp traffic it looks like n9 tries to use BURL extension when talking to my smtp server, server which don't support it and don't publish it in its capabilities list. My guess is that email client have buggy code similar to http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-mid...t.cpp#line1125 where it check if imap or smtp server is capable of using BURL, but not if both flags are set simultaneously.

Well, for sure it doesn't work. The emails eventually get there, I haven't found a pattern to how often that happens... Like now I just got a notification 20 minutes after the email arrived. IMAP IDLE works perfectly on another account.

I'm one of the two persons responsible for this server, and I can't really imagine what could be wrong... Anyway it works nicely with Android, iOS, Maemo... How do I provide the necessary logs so you can have a look?

Btw, when I send mail through SMTP, I just get my email-adress as sender, not my name as I would expect and like I guess this is a known bug?

And last, when you said "Noted" about my wish for a feature to choose folder to save sent messages; I guess there's no hope what so ever that it will ever come? I mean, I understand you can't promise me anything, but is it a possibility, or is it not going to happen?

I really have to agree with the others appreciating your work, it's very impressive the effort you are putting into this thread!

Regards,
Stian

The 7 sim card "limitation" comes from underlying technology albeit we could have expanded that to 32 but this was decided not reasonable case to fork established open source project (encryption of block level devices in Linux kernel).
Thank you very much for that information. In my case the device lock wasn't enabled at all but after a full reset I'm now able to switch sim cards without problems with no device lock - kind of strange but it works

I have the same problem with my N9. Sending mails via smtp (587/tls) isn't possible. I receive always the message "error occoured".

Can you please notify Meego forum if something like this starts here? I don't usually follow talk.maemo.org (as well as many others I suppose), so I easily missed this one.

So I just repost what I asked there already:
http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=4779

Even after the PR 1.1 update for N950 I wasn't able use the e-mail client there properly. One of the annoying things is, that while sending a message, it doesn't put your name on it, even though the name is provided in the account settings (I'm using IMAP/SMTP). Am I missing something, or it's a bug?

^ Agreed,

The two threads Nokia devs have started in this sub-forum should by stickied by a mod (sjgadsby?).
And also linked-to (and stickied) from the MeeGo handset sub-forum...
Sergey you & your colleague are missing a large cross-section of people is this isn't done.

Cheers.

Have no idea. I've got nothing to say about it.

yes, and as far as I remember it should be fixed (I will check it tomorrow).

"Noted" means that I've forwarded your post/idea/request/etc. to the guys, that are making decisions So, it is possible that some features will be added And according to your feature ("choose folder to save sent messages")... well, not sure that we will implement it. At least not soon

Thanks. At least in PR 1.1 missing sender name bug is still present. On a side note, are there any plans of adding LDAP directory contacts support?

Sorry for arriving late to this useful thread...

I've raised two defects/enhancements against the N950 Beta1 and Beta2, which are still not addressed in PR1.1 (2.2011.39-5):

1. Trigger new email alert with each new email. With the device only alerting the user on receipt of the first email, when the user may be out of earshot, and never again for any subsequent new emails until an email is read by the user, the audio notification for new emails is essentially unreliable and useless.

2. Manually display remote content, or only if the sender is a known contact. Currently, remote content (images etc.) can be either always on or always off. With the ON or OFF option buried in Settings, this is extremely inconvenient, and leaving remote content always on is a significant privacy risk as tagged images are a well known method used by spammers to determine if an email account is still active.

Both of the above defects/enhancements were also raised against the original N900 firmware, and after much persistence from the Maemo community fixed in a later firmware update. I'm *really* surprised therefore to see that the same design mistakes have been repeated with MeeGo and the N9/N950!

Hopefully both defects can be fixed in time for PR1.2.
