PUSH MAIL : PULL MAIL

In the era of email mobility majority people in India use email as mode of communication for both official and personal uses. Under nokia product portfolio many devices have email feature into them but Nokia has designed specialized series for mailing commonly known as E-Series mobiles standing for Enterprise Series Mobiles. These devices have both the feature of PUSH and PULL mail. As according to the requirement a person can choose what mailing system is best suited to him/her.


What is PULL mail: “It’s a system of mailing where the initiation process is triggered by the mobile and connects to the email server at a fixed interval of time and pulls out mails which have arrived in between the interval of time”. Or the way your MS Outlook works.

What is Push mail: ‘’It’s a system of mailing where the initiation process is triggered by the server and pushes mail to mobiles as soon as email hits over the email server”.

Why PULL mail: Many people receive very less number of emails on daily basis and don’t want to be connected online 27*7. Moreover people also don’t want to use network data plan of the service provider as for many people these data plan are costly and they want to use it only in case of urgency. Pull mail solution helps in both the terms as once can choose when to connect and what internet mode to be used (service provider data plan or Wi-Fi).

Why PUSH mail: In today’s fast moving life everyone wants everything instantly. So in terms of emails, push mail is fast in delivering emails to mobile and one is not supposed to wait for mail to get retrieved. Nowadays there is lot of data plans which makes more people to attract towards push mail. Moreover even normal GPRS plan is also capable of doing so.

Microsoft Communicator Mobile for Nokia Debuts

First deliverable from Microsoft and Nokia alliance aims to simplify mobile collaboration.

REDMOND, Wash., and ESPOO, Finland — May 4, 2010 — Microsoft Corp. and Nokia today launched the first application from their alliance around mobile productivity, Microsoft Communicator Mobile for Nokia devices. This new unified communications client connects directly with a company’s communications systems to streamline mobile collaboration. Owners of a number of Symbian-based Nokia Eseries smartphones can download the English version today from Nokia’s Ovi Store, the easiest place to get content on their Nokia devices.

“Our alliance with Nokia aims to bring the Microsoft Office productivity experience to the millions of people using Nokia smartphones around the world,” said Kirt Debique, general manager, Microsoft Office Communications Platform & Solutions Group, Microsoft. “With the arrival of Communicator Mobile for Nokia today, we have a great start to fulfilling our joint vision.”

Communicator Mobile enables people to see their colleagues’ availability and click to communicate with them using the best method, from instant messaging and e-mailing to texting and making a phone call. The names and statuses of colleagues are embedded directly into the devices’ contacts application, enabling people to update their own presence, start and join instant messaging sessions, and begin calls directly from the contact card.

“This application really provides a much more efficient way to work with others, as you can see if someone is busy or available and the best way to start a conversation with them,” said Ukko Lappalainen, vice president at Nokia. “It also meets all of the requirements for the enterprise: cost-effective to implement, secure, familiar and reliable.”

The launch is the first product from the alliance — announced this past August — which was the first time either company had embarked on an agreement of this scope and nature. Since then, the two companies have been collaborating on the design and development of new solutions, as well as embarking on joint marketing efforts around others they already share.

“As part of our push to constantly enhance our unified communications proposition, we are keen to extend the collaborative benefits of Microsoft Communicator Mobile to Nokia devices,” said Scott Petty, director of Vodafone Products and Services, Vodafone Group Business Services. “Communicator Mobile offers great potential for our large corporate customer base who have already deployed Communicator for desktop and now are looking to extend that existing infrastructure to mobile.”

“We trial all potential offerings ourselves and have been very happy with the internal response and productivity increase we have experienced using Microsoft Communicator Mobile,” said Roger Wüthrich-Hasenböhler, executive vice president at Swisscom/Webcall. “Having these two companies work together is really helping us serve the needs of our customers.”

This new application, available initially for Nokia E72 and Nokia E52, adds to the work Nokia is already doing in optimizing direct access to e-mail and other personal information with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync. The companies plan to deliver Communicator Mobile for Nokia pre-installed on select Nokia smartphones in the future and plan to support additional devices, including the recently announced Nokia E5.

Nokia Messaging New Features

Nokia is rolling out an update for Nokia Messaging for Email over the next few weeks – the first piece being a client update for S60 5th edition devices. This update is available as “Nokia Messaging 10.2” in the Software Update application on your phone.


To answer what will likely be a popular question – “but, what about my device”, nokia is going to be rolling this client for S60 3rd edition on messaging.nokia.com in the next few weeks and will let people know when it’s available. We’ve also got some server-side features in the works that we’ll be discussing shortly. Nokia Messaging is truly a service: continually evolving and adding features.

Here are the highlights of the client release:

•Localized in 38 languages

•Support for Destinations on S60 5th edition devices

•Improvements to on-device-setup wizard

•Deleted items folder now automatically empties itself, faster client deletions

•Various bug fixes

After getting many S60 5th edition users’ feedback about Destinations support,Using your devices’ Destinations feature, you simply add your preferred WiFi access points to the Internet Destination (or any other Destination that you configure), and Nokia Messaging will automatically switch to it when it’s available.

Nokia have also made several improvements to the setup wizard, based on analysis of where users typically encounter errors during setup. Another area we’ve made improvements is in deletion handling – the ‘Deleted Items’ folder will now automatically clear emails older than three days that it previously kept, and deletions are snappier in the client in this release. Finally, we’ve fixed a few nagging bugs including restoring “Send with Nokia Messaging” from the Gallery, and you can now properly attach files from the N97’s memory card.
If you’re curious about version numbers – they’re admittedly a bit confusing. S60 5th edition will see 10.2.04 as the version number in the client. On Software Update on your device, this release will be identified as 10.2.
