++ the manufacturing process of Microsoft Lumia mobile phones is discontinued, but many of them are still in action and competitive. In my opinion, the timing for their launch alongside the first versions of Windows 10 mobile has been a problem (later versions of Windows 10 mobile are more competitive). I compare the path of Microsoft Lumia phones with the path of Mercedes F1 Team. If you have perseverance, you can win, but you need to have realistic intermediary goals. You must not be number one from the start, but rather be on the field, with competitive, distinctive devices (1% market share can be achieved with the core fans of Microsoft Windows). 1% is not a small number of users & translates to even more when we focus on Windows users. So my question is for Microsoft & fans // is it possible to continue the manufacturing process of Microsoft Lumias for the fans of the brand & Windows ? // ++  #theWindowsthatneversleeps +

    Is there a way to get the Mail app on my Lumia 640XL? I was getting a message that the Mail app was out of date, but I just dismissed it until I inadvertently unpinned it from start. It doesn't show up in the list of apps and I can't download the new version from the store. Any thoughts? I did download FlowMail, which will let me get my gmail and yahoo mail, but there's now way that I can see to get my AOL mail. Any help would be appreciated. Paul

    The Outlook Mail and Calendar app should be in the Store. Is your phone running Windows 10 Mobile? The Store is still functional. Download a copy. Ensure your Lumia 640 XL is running Windows 10 Mobile Version 1607 or later. You can see that in Settings.

    Thank you for this. I was able to download it again. I'm not sure why it disappeared. I just unpinned the tile from start and it didn't show up in the list of installed programs. But somehow it reappeared when I went to Settings/storage and found it there. But thank you again.
