How to Configure Email Accounts of Nokia N99i and Nokia N95 8GB Clone (China-Made Cell Phones)

October 24, 2008 · Filed Under Cell Phones/Mobile Phones

If you have been wondering how you can send and receive emails using your China-made cell phones like Nokia N99i and Nokia N95 8GB clone, then you have to learn first how to configure email accounts of these phones. It might be tricky to some users but the steps are actually very simple:

First, go to the main Menu. From there, follow these steps in configuring email accounts in China-made cell phones like the Nokia N99i or Nokia N95 8GB clone. Since the operating system of China-made cell phones units are virtually the same, I presume this simple tutorial will also apply to other cell phone models made in China.

From the Menu option -> Business Zone -> Email -> Email Profile

Choose an email profile to use (e.g., Profile 1) or create a new one by editing the name of an existing profile. Open Options -> Edit.

From the Edit menu, configure the following sub-menus or items:

a) Profile Settings. Under Data Account, choose GPRS (default is FET so change that to use GPRS and the pre-configured GPRS account). To activate WAP settings, read the previous tutorial on How to Configure Nokia N99i V9+i, Nokia N95 8Gb Clone and Other China Cell Phones to Connect to the Internet andother related articles. Depending on your network, you will also need to activate the GPRS and MMS settings for these phones using network-exclusive details. Check with your network provider the details needed.

b) Outgoing Server. You will need to fill up the following fields under this Sub-menu, i.e., Outgoing server, Outgoing Port (default is 25), Display Name, Email Address, Username and Password. Again you should check with your network provider the needed values for these fields.

c) Incoming Server. Just like in the Outgoing Server sub-menu, you need to fill up the fields in this section, i.e., Incoming Server, Incoming Port (default is 110), Username and Password. For other options, you do not need to change anything. Keep the default values.

d) Signature (optional). You may or may not change this sub-menu.

As a word of advice, check with your network provider the correct configurations of the GPRS and MMS settings before you change a thing in the Email setup of your China-made cell phones. They are the prerequisites to this task.
