symbian quick, easy & free push email alternative

first is to understand what is push email. for users' view, push email is simply mean you dont have to check your email anymore. they just arrive on your mobile. just like the way sms works.

why pay for push email service when you can get something 'similar' for free!?

symbian standard messaging application already support pop3/imap email. you just have to set it up so that it regularly check your email account. you can set from every 5 minutes, up to every 6 hours to check for new email.

for detail, please see the screenshots album here. i will move the screenshots here when i'm not such lazy anymore... :)

for newer symbian apps, there's an IMAP feature called IDLE that can do real and better push mail. if you have the device, i can show you.

if you want security, you can enable ssl. but make sure that you have correct ssl certificate for your domain. otherwise, you will be prompt a warning about invalid certificate. thus, it wont check your email until you confirm the certificate.

guess how many IM virus this man got infected?

how many IM viruses infected this man's computer? or is it only one virus sending so much junk?

i really dont know and might never know. my pc never get infected by any virus without my knowing. either because i'm on linux on other pc, or my windows pc never use the most targeted apps (ym, msie, msoe, etc. i always use third party apps for IM, email, browsing, etc.) like i suggested.

so, to answer John, i dont have to deal with any virus on my pc at all. :)

i do deal with a lot of viruses on friends and families infected computers. but they rarely do IM online so i rarely deal with any IM virus.

i guess, it'll be same to deal with any virus. me, i have portable clamwin and spybotsd on my flashdisk and get it updated when i need to use it on friends & families infected pc. i also have winpatrol to remove any unneeded startup apps, worms & virus.

how to put 'Blog This' link on your blogger beta

i am searching for a 'Blog This' links to put on my blogger beta. currently, i only found a link to blog to Yahoo! 360. anyone got links i can use? i want link to wordpress.com, blogger.com and whatever i can find.

the code is here.

update: it's a beta test. so, some links not working yet.
because wordpress.com need to access the subdomain directly, it might be impossible to link directly to wordpress.com. it will need to know the subdomain of wordpress.com to do it.

Review aplikasi j2me gmail

Google baru rilis aplikasi gmail utk hp berbasis java. Bisa download & instal langsung dari hp dgn buka web gmail.com/app
fitur selain baca/tulis/balas email:
- signature email yg sama dgn yg seting yg tersimpan
- akses label gmail
- search, dont sort. Perbedaan utama gmail tdk menggunakan folder utk sortir email tetapi memaximalkan search utk menemukan email yg kita mau
- thread / conversation view. Fitur yg saat ini blm ada pada email laen, dan juga salah satu fitur favorit saya. Menampilkan email dan semua balasan dalam bentuk percakapan seperti forum/newsgroup.

Walaupun sebelumnya gmail bisa diakses dari hp dgn membuka m.gmail.com, tetapi sangat terbatas pada fungsi utama email, yaitu baca, tulis&balas saja dan tdk menampilkan thread view.

Kekurangan:
- tdk bisa attachment
- harus selalu online
- tdk bisa sync alamat/contact dgn hp seperti yahoo go
- tdk bisa akses alamat yg tersimpan di hp
- terlalu sering menanyakan mau konek dgn akses point yg mana.
- aplikasi java menggunakan memory lebih bnyk daripada aplikasi native symbian

kesimpulan:
walaupun dari pc tiap hari sy online gmail, tetapi utk akses dari hp sy lbh suka yahoo go yg terintegrasi dgn aplikasi messaging symbian.

Selain itu, tdk bisa attachment sering menyebabkan sy batal menggunakan gmail.
Misal email ini sy attach dgn gambar2 menggunakan yahoo go.

Sehingga, akses gmail dari hp menjadi sekadar cek email aja.
