I'll try to test each of the 2 apps I have in mind for a few days and decide which one I want to keep. For the record, I am using a N95-3 on T-mobile (ya... EDGE), accessing Exchange mail through OWA (Outlook Web Access). Sorry I don't know which version of Exchange server we have.
What They Do
Both of these apps will push your Exchange mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, etc. right to your cell phone. Emoze can also be configured to other personal mail accounts such as Google or Yahoo, however you can only configure 1 account, so I am using it for Exchange. MfE, as spelled out in the name, is strictly for Exchange. You can tell the apps which folders to sync and when to sync. Both apps are FREE!
What You Need
You will need an unlimited data plan since it is constantly syncing your mail. MfE obviously only works with Nokia phones and only on the E series and certain N series phones right now, but will be available for all Nokia Symbian S60 devices in the future. Emoze can work with different devices that have the supported OS.
Mail for Exchange
What I like
- Sync will occur as long as profile is set up. No need to have separate app open
- Fast sync
- Can open attachments as long as your phone supports the file type for the attachment
- Cannot sync subfolders
- Cannot go to mailbox directly from MfE app
- There's no way to turn off the syncing other than changing the sync schedule in your profile to other dates or set it to manual sync
What I like
- Can sync subfolders under the Inbox, but they will all appear in the same "emoze mailbox"
- Can truncate emails, and fetch truncated portion if necessary
- Need to have Emoze app open to sync
- Can only sync email from the last day
- Starting up and syncing took very long, and actually didn't always work for me
- Can only open attachments under 100k in the free version

several comments about emoze (since I work for emoze :) )
1. emoze is much more efficient on battery, network and CPU consumption then MfE.
2. you can go to the setting and configure cleanups, period of getting emails and other useful rules as you wish
3. emoze pro supports unlimited attachment size and multiple accounts

hello,
I've been enjoying emoze a lot since i got it a day ago. however, today i noticed that all my google calendar appointments were set one hour forward on the calendar of my nokia e71. testing this further, i noticed that when i entered a full-day event a few days ahead of time, it would appear as one day behind on my e71 calendar.
why is google calendar not syncing properly on my e71?
any help would be much appreciated.
