How to Setup Gmail Email in N73
Posted on January 2, 2008
I’ve been using Nokia N73 for almost a year already and when I came back here in Riyadh I was able to use its features. one of the features that I am really thankful of is the email and settings wizard. Setting up your N73 to receive and send emails is easy.
Go to Tools > Setting Wizard > E-mail > Choose your Country/Region and Operator (Mine is Saudi Arabia, and Mobily KSA Prepaid) > choose your email provider (we’re using gmail) > Outgoing mail Server (choose smtp.gmail.com) > type your complete email address (youremail@gmail.com), then your user name and password > then press Options and select Ok.
Once you’re done, go to Messaging and you should see a Gmail folder below My Folders. Congratulations You have just setup your gmail account in your N73 phone.
This actually applies to other N series nokia phones.
Before retrieving your messages, I suggest you modify your email settings. Go to Gmail folder then click options, choose email settings > Retrieval Settings > Email to Retrieve (choose headers only so only the sender and subject of the email will be retrieved) then press OK.
Retrieving your messages. Messaging > Gmail > Options > Connect. It will update your gmail inbox with the headers of the new messages. Remember that we choose headers only in retrieval settings so you have to mark every headers of the message that you want to retrieve. By choosing headers only, we were able to save data downloaded.
Prices vary from Operator. Here, based on my experience, 1mb of data transfered including upload(send) and download(receive) costs around 2 Riyals which is expensive compared to other Operators worldwide which offers per hour basis and sometimes unlimited browsing.
