Push E-Mail Detailed
December 31, 2008
The electronically transmitted mail or E-Mail as it is known is delivered to the addressee at a specific ID. The addressee is required to open the system and pull the mail as and when it is needed. As soon as the sender remits the mail, the same arrives at the mail server of the internet service provider. Alternatively the mail reaches a website server, if the e mail is web based. Unless and until the addressee opens and pulls the message, it remains with the mail server. The system demands that the addressee has to pull for the mail.
A further development in the technology enables the addressee to receive the mail instantaneously, as and when the sender remits it. The mail is pushed to the addressee without waiting for a specific pull from the recipient, a phenomenon that distinguishes push e-mail from the earlier pull mail system. The new mode of push mail is provided in wired system of computers for the past few years, but its introduction in the wireless system like mobile phones is a recent development. Characteristically the system will be always open to receive the pushed e-mails. The new system, facilitates constant updating of the users’ mail box without specific and periodical interventions.
The mobile phone users find the push e-mail very convenient, as it is possible to go through the mails leisurely even while traveling. The user need not open the mail box now and then to check the arriving mails. The process is automatic. The permanently ‘on’ internet makes the job easier for the user. Many well known manufacturers have developed push e-mail system, taking note of the immense popularity it gained among the users. It is now widely available in all hand held devices such as Symbian based smartphones. Some of them provide for chatter mail also.
However, there are consumers who strongly plead against the push mail system. In the ‘pull’ system, the user can ignore some mails, which need not be down loaded. The push mail depends on continuous internet connection to avail the download facility. There are apprehensions that the continuous flow of incoming mails will choke the system and consequently, some of the mails may be lost without the knowledge of the sender and the recipient. But, such pessimism exists only among a small percentage of mobile phone users. The demand for smart phones with push e-mail facility is increasing gradually, indicating the strong sentiments of the consumers. As in the case of all other innovations in consumer electronics, smart phones and push mail system fascinates the consuming public. According to some studies almost 35 percent of mobile phone users in the developed countries have already opted for the new feature.
