Bulgaria's first and biggest mobile operator M-Tel is already offering its subscribers the Nokia Messaging service, which was officially launched in the country in the middle of October by Vivacom.

The monthly subscription for the service is BGN 9,90, while the first month after its activation will be free of charge.

Nokia's Messaging solution is meant to offer users a simple method to simplify the mobilization of their email accounts.

The solution enables mobile phone users to access a number of up to 10 email accounts directly from their handsets, and comes with a very simple setup process that eliminates unnecessary intermediate steps.

Moreover, it also comes with push-email technology, so that users are prompted anytime a new message arrives in their inbox, delivering the emails directly to the mobile device.

In Bulgaria Nokia has joined forces with the three biggest providers of email services - abv.bg, mail.bg and dir.bg, which account for 90% of the market among those consumers who are not subscribers of majors like Gmail, Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail.
