It doesn't sound like you've got the rootsh package installed. Check in App Manager - if it appears in the download list, then install it.

Same problem, I typed the SUDO GAINROOT and the reply was "if you want to break your device enable RD mode" Then I typed whoami and I got the answer "USER", then I typed the root and got the same response " not found"

That's because you've not installed the rootsh package.

moboper, you have send me a private message but I can not reply to you via the private messaging mechanism because:

"moboper has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her." :-)

So, answering you here:

The instructions to turn the logging ON: http://wiki.maemo.org/Mail_For_Excha...the_logging_ON

Part of the task is to install syslog which needs to have root access. "sudo gainroot" does not work for you but this is not the only way to become root.
