Nokia Email Beta 3 Now Available For N82, Multiple Accounts Supported

A few weeks ago I wrote an article about the new Nokia Email Service which is still under the beta phase. They recently updated the application to version 3 and now officially support the Nokia N82.

They also now have support for multiple email address and include a lot of bug fixes that have to do with the servers and email retrieval. Overall I've been pretty happy with this release as it seems to be giving better battery life to my N82.

Here is what Nokia Beta Labs have to say about the update...

Today, the Nokia Email service team is proud to announce the first updated beta release. Nokia Email service is designed for Nokia device owners to make mobile email easily discovered and intuitive. Since we launched on August 8th, we’ve received thousands of questions, suggestions and positive feedback about Nokia Email service. We’re pleased to say that we’ve taken four of the most popular feedback requests from our users and implemented them in this release.

* Localization. We’re now localized into six different languages, including full support for international characters, which has been a very popular request from our beta testers from all around the world. This release localized in English, Finnish, German, Dutch, Latin American Spanish and Iberian Spanish.

* More email addresses. Now Nokia Email lets you get mail from up to 6 email addresses, each in its own mailbox yet all in one place, and makes composing from any account seamless.

* More phones. Nokia Email service is available on more of the most popular Nokia S60 devices, including many of the latest S60 3.2 devices like the N96 and the N78.

* Better mailbox management. When you delete an email on your Nokia phone, it will be deleted from your email account. We’ve enabled this for both IMAP and POP accounts.

David also goes on to talk more about the upcoming features that people have been asking for.

I recently wrote up an article at Symbian-Addict.com giving my detailed thoughts on the updated application. Click here to see that and get a better understanding of what's included and not included in this update. Obviously this application is meant for those heavy email users who need there mail the second it arrives. If your a more basic email user and only receive 5-10 emails a day then maybe the built in email application is good enough for you.

Do any of you use this? What are your thoughts. Be sure to also tell the folks at Beta Labs your thoughts since this application is not the final product and is still being improved.
