Hopefully this is a simple one... I've been installing Mail for Exchange on a range of Nokias where I work. On the E series devices I've set up so far (E60, E61i and E70) the standby screen of the phone displays a few calendar appointments and the newest 2 emails from MfE, but on the one N95 I've done, it only displays the appointments, and not the emails.
On the E61i there is a setting in:
Tools > Settings > Phone > Standby mode
called "Active standby mailbox", but there is nothing similar on the N95 that I can find.
Am I just looking in the wrong place, or can you not display the email here on this phone?
Unfortunately, it just can't be done AFAIK... best option is to use the New Mail popup that will then click you through to the M4E mail box.

Thanks for the fast reply. That's what I though, will report back... (I set them up and support them, but I'm not important enough to be actually bought one - makes things interesting)
Its one of the frustrating differences in E series firmware and N series.
I guess its how Nokia distinguish between 'business' range and 'multimedia' range. Ultimately, I reckon it would be far easier for them to issue the same release for both (less maintenance on their behalf) but no......
The other annoying difference is with access points. In e series you can define a priority so it can use the most efficient (Wlan at home/office then GPRS when out of coverage) which never made its way over to N series.
In the wondows mobile world, people extract the ROMS of devices and make the programs available for other devices but this is not done (or maybe not possible) in the Symbian world.
Look up the product I use called Emoze - not a direct answer to your question but may be of interest . . . ?

There was a program for the N95 by BirdStep called Smartconnect but its now not available to purchase and the demo works poorly. VERY frustrating!

The ability to hack aound with the firmware has been available a lot longer to Windows Molbile Users 😉 I daresay that people will soon find a way of downloading a software update and finding a way of debranding etc as time goes on.

I dont think I can set us up to use that at work, but might be very useful for home... Thanks, looks good!

Yes its brilliant actually - gives push email over wifi/gprs/3g etc, and it's totally free !!
