Rather than try to cram a mail client into an i-Appli, you should look
at a server-based Web solution. We built a simple email Web application
to access our POP server remotely without too much trouble.

Thanks all for the comments.

I realize the forwarding is possible. The question was mostly to verify
the
possibility of a claim that the embedded ("standard") reader could be
used
to directly access corporate mail.  Although I believe it would be
technically possible it sounds extremely unlikely given the restrictions
that are present on the servers that are reachable.

Vince,

Yes we had the same issue. We got around it by enabling the iappli to
communicate directly back with  to the same webserver  which in turn
then
communicated with the popmail server.

On second reading of the original posting I see that the requirement may
be
to use the embedded phone mail reader. A quick solution to this would be
to
simply forward the corporate e-mails to the docomo e-mail account. Even
MS
outlook lets the user configure this.

Hi John,

I'm curious to know more about your iappli pop mail client. I was
thinking
about writing one myself and started looking into iappli API.  I soon
learned that iapplis are only allowed to connect to their source
webserver.
Since it's unlikely that that my ISP will allow me to install my iappli
for
download on their web server, I gave up.

Just curious how you got around that problem when writing your iappli
that
allows you to read popmail from "any popserver"?

Also, is your iappli available for public download or is it for the
internal
use only?

regards,
Vince
