But you could let the user allow to switch to normal reply if desired. On WM devices it's only one click and the original body can be edit. (-> Change original message)

Sure. But it needs modifications of Maemo mail client. If community modifies modest (open-source Maemo mail client) to support these 2 operational modes I will be more than happy to add required functionality to MfE.

At first, I and the development teaam are really sorry about the problems you are having.
Second, what exactly Nokia told you? Is it about Exchange 2003 support ? Then just wait a little bit more for sw. update, pls.

Again, we are sorry about the problems you are having with our software.

Ok. Too sad I don't know if this will happen in the next months. I would have bought the N900 with smart relply, but without I'll have to stick with Microsoft powered devices. :-(

This feature request was discussed here last week.

I see 3rd party folder management application as the simplest and fastest way to deliver this feature.

The idea:
After the user has configured an account, the mailbox data (including folders to sync) is inside the DB. It can be shown graphically in UI as a tree of folders and it can be modified in UI using SQL-statements. When the folder is removed from sync configuration, it is not synced anymore.

If any community developer is interested in developing such application, I can give him free "consulting" how to do it. In my opinion, it is 1-2 days of work for experienced sw. developer (including testing).

A bit hacky approach, yes.

Why is it so hard for nokia to realise, that

1. multiple calendars are a good thing
2. people want to use and synchronize these calendars, not only one.

Ok, the N900 can deal with multiple calendars, but it doesn't allow syncing these multiple calendars. It's not that hard to implement, is it?

I'm mostly curious why this feature is always omitted.

You "only" have to make Google Sync (two way) possible (=reliable!) and a lot of complains would stop about MfE...

Not too many people need this feature (surprise). Most probably it is the reason why it is not done.

"Most probably" reflects my personal opinion here. Remember, I am technical guy, not the business decision maker.

Hi,

not a unix whizz so can you walk me though that command line by command line? I assume this is done using terminal or is can I just copy it?

Thanks

Simon

The /home/user/.activesync/certs/ -directory does not have any symlinks to there. I manually symlinked the imported certificate from the .maemosec-certs/ssl-ca/ -directory to the activesync's directory, and it works!

(though it shouldn't be this hard)...

BR, Lari

Really? My impressions are different here. I know many people who have ditched symbian phones because of lack of multiple calendar support. I always though nobody wants his or her private appointments mixed with business appointments...
