"A real revolution is about setting new standards and making them accessible to all. Every now and then a new mobile email solution appears on the market, but none of the solutions available today were able to become a real commodity for end-users. emoze is the realization of the mobile office vision, FREE and accessible for all mobile users around the globe. ... With emoze everyone can have the comfort of getting their e-mails and ‘Outlook®’ data wirelessly onto their mobile device. Thanks to emoze end-users can now be available 24/7, FREE of charge."



Everyone wants push email support, but not everyone has access to a hosted Exchange server. This is where emoze steps in. Emoze, is a free email push service that supports Microsoft Exchange, Novell Groupwise, Lotus Domino, POP3, Yahoo Mail and Gmail. Not only does this product support a wide variety of email platforms and mobile devices, it also claims to be one of the fastest push email system. The company that makes emoze is so confident of its product that it is challenging BlackBerry at the CTIA Wireless trade show, to see who can push emails, contacts & calendar quickly and easily. In case you want to understand how it works, check out this Web page. The FREE download of emoze is available over here. We would like to hear from our readers who have used this product or plan to use it.

I was using this a lot. However, I had two issues that I don't think they haven't fixed yet, at least according to the version info on emoze.com.

Issues (Samsung Blackjack and Treo 750):
1. Battery - it really drains your battery faster that any other push software. Somebody said to change the email settings to check every 5 minutes and it should improve the battery. Why call it Push Email if you're going to do this.

2. Re-curring appointments on Exchange 2003. It doesn't show any re-curring appointments, only one-time appointments you will get.

Too bad, it would have been a nice program over my Express Mail (Cingular).

I've tried it twice in the last 3 months. It does work as a push mail solution, but as mentioned in other posts, it is a HUGE battery drain. Second, when trying to use it in a secured, corporate, fire-walled, proxied environment, there are not enough options or feedback on configuring the PC based component of the software. It seems to find the server on the internet, but can't log into it.

Instead, I'll keep my Mail2Web free hosted Exchange account that uses Microsoft's standard push-mail solution. Simply works, and doesn't hinder battery life in push-mode.

This looks very interesting to me since our company usese Lotus Notes. Currently I only synchronize with my Notes data when "docked". I have to use a 3rd party program to connect the Notes data to my smartphone. I'm wondering if this would work the same (since it's free) and I could set it up to only synchronize when I'm connected to my work PC. It seems like it could be possible.

I'm looking at this type of method due to not wanting to buy a data package and my company's IT dept gets paranoid about running stuff on there servers. Of course I could set this up to run on my own work computer.

Any comments??

Well I downloaded it and it keeps asking me to use outlook or change my default email client... my default email client is lotus notes.. this software is POS

I used it for a short while. It worked fine but killed my battery very quickly. It seemed like it was in constant communication. My Q was almost too hot to handle.

Hoping that the developer will fix this battery drain issue soon. Sounds like a bummer.
