Looked into the User Guide?

http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/guides/Nokia_E50_UG_en.pdf

All you need to do is to enable the "Allow remote lock" setting (pg. 25 in above manual).

Then you send an SMS to the phone with the message.

Note that it will also automatically set the memory card password to the first 8 characters of the message.

Re: How to lock Nokia E50 remotly

when you send an sms to your phone to lock it from another phone the only thing that should be in the text is your lock PIN number (the one you setup when you enabled remote lock)
6630, n73, e61i, 7397, 6300
