Whaasup everybody , let me begin by letting you guys know that I am really really new to this symbian stuff

Ok so here is the thing I have set up my Gmail's account's on my N95-3 NAM , and so far so good , it does connect and it does download the emails , the problem is that is not downloading the very recent ones :befuddled :doh: it is downloading the oldest mails that I have (some of them are from december 2006 :bulging: how in the heck do I set it up to download only the recent ones ??

I have tried the following : Open the account I wish to download > Options > Retrieve e-mail > New , and still nothing WTF !!

On retrieval settings I have this : Max. 3(kb) and Retrieval amount 50

Like I said mail is getting downloaded , and it is connecting so I know my email (account settings) are right , all I need now is to get the latest mails on my phone , any help will be highly appreciated , thanks dudes !!

It's downloading everything as they are considered unread. What you need to do is retrieve Headers only, mark them all as read and then it won't bother with them.

Hi Neo001, the best way to set up gmail on your N95 is to use IMAP access (and not pop3).

This will solve your problem.

Or even use Gmails own app by pointing your phone browser to http://www.gmail.com/app
Personally I use the app as it maintains the interface and all the options like archiving, starring etc.

I have also set gmail as my outgoing mail client in the native email options though as I use that if I want to attach anything (the gmail mobile app can't do that).

This is a problem with Google, and it took me a very long time to suss.. Go into your Googlemail (i.e www.gmail.com) account and the settings, DISABLE the POP usage. Save your settings. Then go back in and re-enable it. It would appear you can only have a certain amount of messages stored on their POP servers.

Hey thanks dudes !! and sorry I did not replied earlier Ok got it working as it should , I have also downloaded the Gmail app , and it all works great thanks dudes !! I really do appreciate this !!

One last question , so I will not have to start another thread , I am a long time Windows Mobile user , and we got skype and windows live mobile , and both are real easy to find and use , is there such thing for my Nokia N95-3 NAM ?? also is there a GPS app that will work with the internal GPS of my phone ?? I do not get why will they put a GPS if it does not work by itself thanks !!

Fring is fantastic for using Skype.

Garmin works well with the internal GPS, but also Nokia Maps (on your phone!) is pretty damn good too!

i use sky mail. which is powered by googlemail.

had to go into googlemail settings and force all emails to be forwarded.

also if you need access to your gmail labels using the default messaging app of the n95-3, dig around in options and email, then subscriptions and it will download all your labels.
