PostHeaderIcon Microsoft exchange email hosting

We have been talking about mobile phones for a long time. As or forum is talking about much more than just mobile phone I thought about talking about some other issue we talk about in our forum. So here is one post Off beat:

In this day and age, email has become an important dial tone businesses as oxygen is to the brain. A lot of important and sensitive business information is done via email each day. In an Ecommerce business environment, order receipts and delivery notifications are often sent through email to it’s buyers. A corporation with multiple offices and sales departments may send important tasks or sales results via it’s secure email network. The possibilities of email are endless, but they all share one important element: It has to be secure and reliable with uninterrupted delivery.

Managing and composing emails can take time and traditionally required a person to be connected to a secure server at home or at office. However, Small Business owners are busy people – they take on multiple responsibilities such as meeting with clients, managing employees, setting strategic goals etc. not to mention out of town business travel. In these situations, access to a secure server may not be readily available.

When you are stuck at the airport waiting for your scheduled flight or have a gap between meetings, a hosted solution with Microsoft Exchange Email can bridge that gap. With the latest technology such as “RPC over HTTP” or “secure Outlook Web Access” (OWA), you can safely log into your emails, delegate tasks to subordinates, communicate with your customers and partners, check and update your calendar and share it with designated colleagues, and much more. You can even synchronize your PDA and handheld devices to read emails from anywhere.

In conclusion, just as you would not think of running your business without a telephone, the same applies to conducting your business on the web. Email is the “dial tone” for your business on the web. Your customers can use email to effectively communicate with you and vice versa. However, email carries inherent risks such as viruses and spam. These have been on the rise as internet users grow from year to year.

A good secure email provider (also known as an Application Service Providor or ASP) should offer content filtering and virus detection along with email services. Microsoft Exchange 2003 is the email platform of choice for many companies. This goes beyond traditional email services and opens doors to exciting new features that can potentially enhance productivity and growth within an organization. Our (localweb.com) clients’ that are utilizing Microsoft Exchange hosting are as diverse as can be – from few users in a small business to hundreds of users in large corporations and government sectors. Another neat thing about this kind of hosting that fee is largely user-based. You can add / delete users any time you want unlike traditional virtual hosting where fees are based on web space and other features. The outstanding benefits of Microsoft Exchange email hosting are discussed below:

1. Cost savings

It comes down to business economics. In- house email administration costs include the cost of owning hardware, software licensing fees, skilled administrators and training. Outsourcing email administration is an attractive option for many business owners as the cost per mailbox (email user) is a fraction of the cost. Typical costs per mailbox user are in the range of $10 to $20 per month, whereas the total cost of ownership, should you wish to run your own Exchange mail server in-house, can cost you tens of thousands of dollars in server hardware, software, license and labor costs annually.

2. Check emails anytime/anywhere

Retrieve and respond to emails remotely using a computer and internet connection. This is done via Outlook Web Access (OWA) in a web browser, or secure “RPC over HTTP” on your notebook, or “ActiveSync/Outlook Mobile Access” or Blackberry Exchange Server” for your PDA devices.

3. Collaborate effectively

Microsoft exchange email hosting comes with features such as Shared Calendars, Shared contacts, Public folders, Meetings scheduling, Tasks management. Some of the benefits are:

* Information is centralized in one place and can be accessed by other designated team members (access can be reduced to authorized personnel only). This provides for better communication and reduces redundancy.
* Tasks can be assigned and completion status checked online.
* Meetings can be scheduled. Availability of attendees as well as meeting rooms and equipment can be checked online and booked.

4. Securely Store data

Information can be distributed across an organization using Public Folder feature. You can designate who has access to which files or folders, and what type of access they will have (read/write access, read-only access, no access, etc.).

5. Wireless Exchange Email hosting

Business professionals can keep it in touch with office and access information on servers remotely using their handhelds such as the Treo, Pocket PC, Blackberry, and other PDA devices.

This feature is particularly attractive to attorneys, sales professionals, and other professionals “on the go” that typically spend a lot of time away from their desks and don’t want to miss critical appointments and messages.

Mobile Access Functionality

Windows mobile extensions are built into Exchange Server. Exchange Outlook mobile access supports mobile devices browsers. You can then check your appointments, schedules and other important messages from mobile devices such as PDA, Blackberry etc.

RPC over HTTPS – Getting seamless secure connectivity to your outlook email RPC over HTTPS is a cutting edge technology. Microsoft Outlook 2003 users can connect to their mailbox on the Exchange Server securely without requiring a separate Virtual Private Network (VPN), over a secure encrypted SSC connection.

Benefits of outsourcing Microsoft Exchange Server Hosting To American Data Technology, Inc.

1. Reduce costs of training IT staff on complex Exchange server administration.
2. Eliminate expensive licensing fees
3. Professionally engineered and secured hosting environment in a Class A data center.
4. Easy upgrading, deployment and administration

PostHeaderIcon Hack the N95’s News reader template!



Hack the N95’s News reader template!(IT HELPS ONLY IF YOU ARE A REGULAR FEEDS READER ON YOUR N95 WEB FEEDS)

As you may have already know, Nokia N95 runs S60 platform 3rd edition, Feature Pack 1 and it means that it comes with new improved Safari browser and improved RSS reader. Feed reader now supports the Atom format (in addition to RSS) and the browser renders feeds in html format.

Previously, feeds could only be viewed as short text only summaries while the new version is capable to process and show, images, full text and links in html format which is incomparable better solution, but… .. .

Unfortunately, the main layout/template isn’t as good as it should be and therefore whole concept doesn’t looks very well and we getting lot of complains related to the news reader.

[ad#chi60]

Text size is simply too large and it makes feed really hard to use and not eye friendly. Even worse, feed reader isn’t affected by the font settings in the browser itself and there is no way to change the font size just like that.

You would need the following:
Ready made freaking RSS templates
yBrowser or any other 3rd party file manger like Fexplorer, Active file, X-plorer

1.)
Restart phone and run yBrowser(ANY FILE MANAGER)
2.)
Go to root of C:\ drive

3.)
Highlight
feeds_view_template.html
4.)
Delete it!
5.)
Now download the template given below and extract the content from the rar file somwhere on your PC.
6.)
Upload the feeds_view_template file to your phone, via the cable in mass storage mode or simply send it via BT.
7.)
Once uploaded run the yBrowser again, find the file and choose:
Options / Edit / Copy
8.)
Go to root of C:\ drive and choose:
Option/edit/paste

Note: But i won’t advice deleting the original file. just copy it to your pc and save a copy there or in the memory card in case you want the default one back…

That’s it, run Safari and enjoy in new eye friendly layout, hope you like it
