Email problems on Nokia mobile phone

[moonjiver]

Anyone having email problems with Nokias?

 

Microsoft, having bought up the mobile phone division of Nokia, have just ended the email facility on many Nokia models, mainly non-touchscreen phones (they have posted statements about it online). For me it's quite a disaster because I often leave my HTC smartphone at home and take out my small handy Nokia - just for calls and checking emails. But using the email menu, or downloading the email applications of Yahoo, Gmail etc. no longer works on the Nokia and going to the Yahoo or Google website and trying to log-in that way also fails.

 

Anyone have any thoughts? It has increased my cynicism about big companies which hold near-monopolies and can do as they please, presumably the hope is to push customers towards buying the more modern phones with Windows software. But am I understanding this correctly? I can hardly believe that the basic Nokias, plenty in the shops still, have suddenly been rendered half useless - good only for phone calls by grannie!

 

So far I have been into one mobile phone shop and the "advisor" knew less than I did, failed completely to set up email again on my Nokia, had no ideas how to get round it ...
