Nokia Mail and Nokia Chat

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Nokia Mail and Nokia Chat (earlier Nokia Email and Ovi Mail) were services developed by

Google accounts and was available in 12 languages.[3]

Originally Nokia operated a service called Ovi Mail which was used on their

S40, Symbian, and MeeGo devices, and was eventually bundled with all Lumia Windows Phone 7 devices, in 2011 Nokia has chosen to migrate Ovi Mail and Ovi Chat accounts to Yahoo! services, at the time Ovi Mail had over 9 million active users. As Yahoo! Mail is built into Windows Phone 7 devices Nokia prompted to its users that they'll have a smooth transition when migrating to Windows Phone.[4][5]
Later Nokia launched Nokia Mail a service powered by Yahoo! accounts for web browsers.

Nokia Mail for Exchange was launched in 2013 for Nokia Asha devices in India, the service was designed to send and receive office emails from their Asha telephones.[6]

The service was acquired by Microsoft in April 2014, as part of the Nokia Devices and Services Division, and closed in March 2015. Microsoft discontinued the service for its devices and advised its users to migrate to Microsoft Skype and Outlook.com.[7][8]
