Hello All,
I just got my self a upgrade from My Nokia E71 to a Nokia E72 “White Edition”, but Sadly It Feels like a downgrade.Critical Issues faced are :

1.) I Configured Mail for Exchange on the phone to sync with my google contacts, but I canot select only contacts and calender to sync, which i used u have in my E71.. Only if mail sync is enabled, it syncs the contacts and calendar which was not the case in my E71, where i had selected it to sync only calendar and contacts but not the mail. Which is simply not possible with the new E72.

2.)The Nokia Messaging Email Client is outdated 2.xxx in my E72, But my E71 had 3.xx which stands out in the below issues :

But the major issue is when we recieve a mail alert, it doesnt show to which mail box the new mail has come, I have about 8 mail boxes when i recieve a mail alert i actually have to visit all the 8 mail boxes to check where the mail has come.
Also the biggest problem is when you locate the mail it shows in a plain text format, but my E71 use to display it in HTML format by default. The plain text has a lot of line breaks which shows up has huge gaps and you have to do a lot of scrolling to read the message which totally would have lost its formatting and is hard to make sense out of the email. You can view it in HTML, but then it shows retrieving for a long time and then opens up the mail, for a guy who gets around 50 emails a day doesnt make sense to wait each time to view in HTML..

Note: You cant view HTML mail from MfE mail boxes at all!!

As a legacy Nokia fan (have been since last 10 years, all my phones being nokia) I went and bought the E72 (regrets, plan to change to a Blackberry Device) after using the th E71 for quite a while, The E72 which actually is a E series business phone which cant do the basic things right. No wonder Nokia is loosing Their market share to Players like iPhone, Blackberrys, and Androids.

Hope we see a patch or update soon, before ppl trash their E72, never look back to nokia again and opt for something like a blackberry with the same form factor. Which does all the above things in ease.

Excellent set up vid, thanks. I need more control over email on my phone. The emails automatically delete from my phone after I open the same emails on my PC. Another problem is that I cannot find sent emails on my phone when I reply to an email (but I can find fresh sent emails). Are there solutions to these two problems?
