Title: Push Mail on SME
Post by: smitti on September 11, 2009, 09:03:00 PM

Hi,

Is there some one who uses push mail on his SME box to a mobile device?

( Push mail is wat Exchane uses to push the mail to a win mobile device )
I use Kerio Mail server on a K12Ltsp box but realy want to go back to SME

O I did ask something like this in end of 2008 begin 2009 but it seems that nobody then did know wath push mail was

I am using the standard Nokia Email client to the SME IMAP server.
This is semi-push email.

IMAP, which is supported by SME, is push technology.

What's your definition of "Push Email"?

That depends on your definition. I would call it pull technology, with notifications. Message content isn't sent until it is asked for.

I'd add that's a good thing.. nowadays people send big attachments without thinking about it :-)
