7 Mobile OmniMessaging Features
(To purchase this additional module please contact your HP Sales Representative)
7.1 MMS - Multi Media Messaging support
The OmniMessaging solution includes a Multi Media Messaging server to
provide text and graphics to a cell phone. Opsol provides the MMS server over
two protocols. We use the Mobile IMAP protocol for speed, small cell phone
footprint and conformance to standard protocols. Or the customer can choose
the WAP protocol if they have a significant WAP investment.
In both cases the user has a universal mailbox and can access it via cellular
phones, email clients etc.
7.2 SMPP Protocol support
The SMS Adaptor is based on the SMPP 3.4 specification and supports any
SMPP3.4 compliant SMS center. The gateway is integrated with
OmniMessaging and delivers a notification for new mail via the SMS protocol.
The notification contains the URL to download the complete message,
attachment or graphic to the users PDA. This feature is useful in confirming a
download for pricing reasons etc.
Short Message Service (SMS) is the ability to send and receive text messages
to and from mobile phones. The text can comprise of words, numbers, or an
alphanumeric combination. Each short message can be up to 160 characters in
length. Newer standards are emerging that support larger message sizes. Often
SMS Mobile Terminate Services are offered along with voice mail notifications,
which account for the vast majority of SMS traffic on the network.
7.3 Java Mobile Client
The Mobile OmniMessaging client has a small footprint and is optimized for the
Mobile IMAP protocol. The client is written in Java and can be easily deployed
across different cellular phone models, PDAs etc.
7.4 Browser Based clients
Mobile OmniMessaging supports standard browser (e.g. Microsoft Explorer)
based clients using the WAP protocol. The users access the OmniMessaging
server using the link http://www.zlemail.com This allows users to read, create
emails in their regular inbox. The WAP Gateway and protocols are provided by
the Cellular Network Provider.
