Description

In Eseries devices an e-mail MTM appears in the Options > New Message > E-mail menu of the messaging application, whereas in other devices, such as Nseries devices and the Nokia 3250, it appears in Options > New Message.

This issue can be avoided by giving an arbitrary UID in the "technology_type_uid" in the RESOURCE MTM_INFO_FILE structure in the MTM's RSS file. See the following code snippet:

 RESOURCE MTM_INFO_FILE
   {
   mtm_type_uid = 0x10005247;
   // Technology type
   technology_type_uid =0xA00001F0;
   //(0xA00001F0 is an arbitrary UID)
   ...
   ...
   }
