Recently got a E71 - very pleased with it.    Have installed nokia email and exchange mail - all working fine.   I ended up with 2 "setup email" links on the main page.  One i could select and hide,  the other I cannot.   When ever i boot the phone it trys to start the email setup wizard by default.     I notice from installations I can remove the email setup - will this affect existing mail accounts and would this mean I can't set up any new accounts in the future?

surely there must be an easy way to remove the icon.    I tried deselcting the wizard from the Modes -> home screen application page but it just comes back after a few minutes.

very annoying.

hi - as I stated in my original email above  "  I tried deselcting the wizard from the Modes -> home screen application page but it just comes back after a few minutes"

I've already tried that - it does dissapear for a minute and then it comes back..... the option is still unticked.

I got the same problem since the upgrade to 300.21.012. Even after I got one mailbox working the setup Wizard comes back on my display after ticking/unticking. On my phone it disappears only for about 2 seconds.

Solution ???

Are you switching modes between personal and business?  The Email setup wizard is enabled in both modes, so you'll need to untick this setting in both modes if you're switching back and forth.

Thanks,

No, I am not switching between modes. I hardly use them. But I did have a look and in the other modus the link to the email wizard is absent and the shortcut is unticked.

Back in the standardmode the link was absent for a few seconds and then returned. Ticking even gave me 2 links and unticking brought me back to no links, but after 2 seconds it reappeared. I get the impression that a program pushes this link. Given other problems with the email I suspect that Nokia distributed a bad version of the email client.

Thanks for your suggestion, gave me some hope and a fresh look.

Sorted!! I had the same thing so had a little dig around.

Go to settings>general>Personalisation>home screen>mode settings>home screen applications>enabled applications, and untick 'Intellisync'. I think you'll find that'll clear it for you.

There may be a quicker route to it but I've not found it yet.

[ottevangers]

Yep, this did the trick. Thanks a lot.

Glad to be of help.

spooky! i found the same solution today, checked back here and you'd beaten me to it!!! DOH!

posted the following elsewhere.

"

i found another solution for removing the email setup link on the homepage (still have the wizard start on boot).  

MENU -> MODES -> HOME SCREEN APPLICATIONS ->enabled applications ->  untick Intellisync

the email setup icon now dissapears on my E71.

I can't find a decent explanation of what intellisync actually does, but all my email is working as before.

To be honest i could probably just remove the set up program as I won't ever need to add another email account..

just thought I'd post this anyway."

WoW. Quite frustrated with the 'setup e-mail link' for quite some time and this is exactly the solution..
