Nokia Email service is no longer in beta and has graduated from Beta Labs. The service will be rolled out on a country by country basis starting with Australia, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom and Venezuela. Naturally, you can continue to use Nokia Email until it’s commercially available in your location.
Aside from fixing some of the known bugs, the new version also features:
- Support for Yahoo! Mail
- Support for more Nokia S60 phones
- Support for up to ten email addresses
- Support for subfolders for IMAP email accounts
- Support for Google Apps hosted email and other vanity domain email addresses
- Flagged messages will automatically become starred messages in Gmail
- More intuitive inbox navigation via a discoverable control bar
- Faster opening of inbox
- Sent email will be synced to your webmail’s sent folder for all email addresses
However, what’s not included in this release is the support for HTML emails. According to the official blog post, Nokia Messaging team spent plenty of time figuring out the best way to implement HTML and they are close to delivering it, but not in this release.
Finally, since the service is now out of Beta Labs, the conversation with users will be continued at the S60 Living blog, where you’re free to drop your two cents via comments form…
