1. Do we have to make any changes
on our Enterprise Email Server?
You don’t need to make any changes on your Enterprise
Email Server. You would just need to add a few details of your
Enterprise Email server on MobilEmail™ server’s
configuration page.
2. Is there an option to go with either
a software or hardware version?
You can use MobilEmail™ either with a software version
installed on one of your servers, or as a pre-configured Hardware
Server (Linux OS).
3. Can I install it behind our Enterprise
Network Firewall?
Yes. MobilEmail™ can be installed behind your Enterprise
firewall, and be connected to Enterprise Email server within
your LAN.
5. What protocols do you support?
We support POP3, IMAP, POP3 over SSL and SMTP.
6. Can I connect on custom ports,
instead of the standard default ports?
Yes, you would have the option to configure MobilEmail™
to connect to Enterprise Email Server on non-standard ports.
7. Can I control / disconnect service
of my users, so no email is on their device?
You, as an administrator would have the option to delete a user
from MobilEmail™ server, thus barring the user from using
MobilEmail™ on his device.
8. Is there any advantage with MobilEmail™
in terms of reduced data usage compared to other providers?
MobilEmail™ only fetches headers, and on the user’s
request it goes and fetches body or attachments, thus reducing
the amount of data pushed on to the device.
9. Can I as an administrator send
messages to my users, if required?
Yes. You can send email or SMSs to all of your users.
10. What are the basic requirements
for a user to access MobilEmail™ from his device?
The user needs to have a MIDP1 compliant J2ME device (see #11
below for device types), data service from cellular service
provider and at least 50K of application memory.

11. How does the user download the
client on his phone?
User can download the client Over-The-Air (OTA). Admin creates
a user-account on server and SMSs download and access details.
12. What devices does MobilEmail™
work on?
MobilEmail™ works on any MIDP1 compliant J2ME
device with a minimum of 50K application memory (almost all
the phones in have this much minimum application memory); works
on Palm devices such as the Treo family and
other MIDP1 or higher compliant PDAs. Several smart phones now
offer a full compact keyboard suitably easy to use.
13. Do they need to have higher memory?
The devices need to have 50K application memory available to
install the client. Most devices, including low-end devices,
meet this requirement.
14. Do we need to have a plan with
a specific carrier as a group, any restrictions on carriers?
MobilEmail™ is carrier agnostic. If your carrier allows
application downloads, you should be able to use MobilEmail™.
You need to have a data service subscription from your
mobile carrier.
15. If a user leaves the organization,
can I disable his access?
Yes, you just need to delete his user account on MobilEmail™
server, and the user will not be able to access.
16. Can I append a message to the
body of every message that a user retrieves?
Yes, you can use the web-interface to add any message and enable
‘appending text at the end of every message retrieved’.
17. Can my users see attachments?
Yes, a user will be able to see supported attachments.
18. Does the user need to have a specific
device to see attachments?
No, all formatting is done on the server. So no need to have
a native application on the device to open attachments.
19. What kind of attachments do you
support?
Word, PDF, text and Image (jpg, bmp, gif, etc.).
