Blackberry email is not about the device, it is about the system in the background that delivers the messages to the device. Okay, it is also about the device, because Blackberry smartphones have excellent keyboards so that you can type new messages as well. Nonetheless, the real power of the Blackberry system is in the servers that read email messages from your email accounts, find your Blackberry, and automatically push the messages to the device.

Most of the smartphone owners of the world, however, have Nokia Eseries or Nseries smartphones. If you are one them, here’s how you can bring a Blackberry-like messaging system into your phone.

Sign up to the system at email.nokia.com. You can let the system fetch messages from up to 10 accounts, but naturally, Nokia Messaging has to know the user names and passwords for the accounts. Download the Messaging application to your phone. It is a large chunk of code, so you have to make sure that there is plenty (and we mean plenty) of free memory space in the phone’s internal memory (not the memory card). After you have installed the software, it will try to connect to the background Messaging system that has collected your email messages, ready to be automatically delivered to the phone.

Once we managed to install Nokia Messaging, it has worked like a charm. Ping! Ping! Yes, we are starting to feel the urge to constantly check the phone for new email messages.
