They can then read, send, forward and reply to emails and download, read and attach files on the go.
Nokia Messaging mobilizes email accounts as well as email solutions from thousands of internet and email service providers globally. Turkcell customers can have up to 10 personal email accounts pushed directly to their Nokia device such as Gmail(TM), Yahoo!®Mail, and Windows Live (TM) Hotmail®.
