An Incredible E-mail Application

[Jonathan Mosen]

Recently I stumbled across an amazing application for Nokia phones.

 

System Seven will allow you to gain push e-mail from services such as
Exchange, Hotmail, Gmail and Yahoo. Now there are other applications that
will do some of these things, including, of course, Nokia's Mail for
Exchange. But here's the cool part. System Seven also allows you to do push
from a standard POP3 or Imap account. With services like Gmail, it's really
fast, with IMap or Pop3 it's a little slower, but better than Nokia's e-mail
client that only checks a minimum of every 30 minutes. As a rule I've found
I am getting mail within 1 to 2 minutes of it having been sent.

 

The application is completely accessible, and its flexible. You can schedule
the hours during the week and weekends that you want mail pushed to your
phone. You can also have multiple accounts pushed to your phone, so you can
set up Exchange, Hotmail, Gmail and Pop3 to push all at the same time for
example. This is one of the coolest things I've seen in a while.

 

But.and yes there always has to be a but.The application is in beta right
now. You have to sign up for the beta process, and that beta sign-up form
has CAPTCHA without any accessible alternative. There is a link on the page
that allows you to contact the system administrator, who promptly set my
account up for me. Perhaps if a few more blind people use this, they'll do
something about it. He told me I was the first blind person he's heard from.

 

The address to join the beta is

I can't stress enough what a huge productivity booster this thing is.
