access Internet content via the Wap browser (from the ‘Services’ menu).
You can also set up the phone to access email via the Messaging application.

your handset. For help with Wap, see our Series

Into your email? If you’re a heavy email user, you might want to have a try of ProfiMail. This dedicated email client gives you much better control of your Inbox, shows you previews of messages, supports HTML email with images, has filters and signatures, supports SSL (for Gmail access) and can poll for your messages at fixed intervals. It’s a built-in text and image viewer, and it gives you better control of what you download – it also comes with a file explorer. So much more flexible and easy to navigate than Nokia’s built in email functionality, and highly recommended. Download a trial of ProfiMail from www.handango.com

Problems
sending emails

• If
  attempting to retrieve email gives you a "General: System
  error", make sure you have "Gateway IP address" set to 0.0.0.0.
  (Tools | Settings | Connection | Access points)
  This message also appears if you are trying to connect to an email
  account over a WAP connection (e.g. trying to connect to BT Yahoo‘s
  mailbox while dialed up over o2‘s WAP service).
• If you try
  to download an email with a large attachment, it’s possible that there
  won’t be enough memory on the device to complete the download. When
  downloading an attachment, be aware as well as being expensive, you
  may find you’re out of memory at an awkward moment, halting your email
  access

• If,
  when attempting to log in, you’re constantly prompted for your password,
  even though you know you’re typing in the right password, there are
  two possible causes. If you’re already logged in (via a web browser
  or a PC program like Outlook, then you’re often not allowed to log
  on via a second device. Make sure you’re not already connected to
  your email provider on another machine. The other thing to check is
  that you’re account hasn’t been temporarily locked as you may have
  made repeated attempts to log on incorrectly. Many ISPs allow you
  to check your mail via a web service… it may be worth trying this
  to make sure your account is working properly and there are no problems
  at your ISP.

Problems
with GPRS

• 
  Most mobile phone operators use different APNs (Access Point Nodes)
  for WAP-over-GPRS and email-over-GPRS. The upshot of this is that
  you can’t connect to your email server over a GPRS WAP connection.
  Additionally, you may need to have your network operator enable access
  to the Internet/email GPRS service.

  Problems with o2 – If you experience a "GPRS: Invalid GPRS
  access point" error when attempting to connect to your ISP over o2
  via o2’s mobile.o2.co.uk APN, this is likely to be for one of two
  reasons – either you have not entered the correct o2 Mobile Web APN
  settings, or o2 has not enabled "Mobile Web" on your account (in
  which case, contact
  o2).

  For general information on o2’s data services, see our o2
  information and o2 WAP pages.

Q. I have a Broadband Advice/cable account (e.g Virgin Media),
and so I can’t use my phone to collect my POP mail on the move. Is there a workaround?
A. Many broadband and cable Internet suppliers offer dialup access too. Check with your supplier.
Failing that, provided the supplier uses POP3 email (as opposed to webmail), then
you should be able to access your email on a phone even if you connect through another provider. Set up your phone for Internet connectivity as outlined on this page (using a BT Yahoo account), then setup your email inbox to access your cable/Broadband provider’s POP server. Note that sending mail from
via your supplier’s SMTP server probably won’t work, so you may need to
use BT Yahoo’s SMTP address.
