Apple managed to finish restoring full service Tuesday evening for its MobileMe subscribers that have been without e-mail access since July 18. The users gained limited Web-based e-mail access on July 26, but now can send and receive messages from e-mail client applications as well.
According to Apple's MobileMe status Web page, the company has "completed restoring Mail service, including historical messages, to all of the 1 percent of affected members."
Subscribers that are still experiencing MobileMe-related e-mail issues can take advantage of Apple's new dedicated chat system for help.
Apple also revealed that it fixed a MobileMe syncing bug that was preventing calendar and contact data from properly syncing wirelessly with the iPhone and iPod touch. Affected users typically found that they were missing some or all of their Address Book and iCal data on their handheld, but the information remained available on their computers and on the MobileMe Web site.
The MobileMe service has suffered from performance and stability setbacks ever since its early July launch, but Apple is now hoping the worst is in the past.
David G., Apple's MobileMe status blogger, stated, "By completing this restoration of Mail services, we hope we have put the vast majority of MobileMe Mail problems behind us and can now focus on improving other aspects of this new ambitious service."
