New software offers Exchange support for iPhone

Synchronica PLC, provider of mobile-synchronization and device-management solutions, has announced that its Mobile Gateway 3.0 software supports over-the-air synchronization between Microsoft Exchange and the iPhone. The software integrates with existing IT infrastructure and doesn’t require the use of IMAP and SMTP on the Exchange server. Mobile Gateway instead uses Microsoft’s secure Outlook Web Access to retrieve email from the server, and then delivers it directly to the built-in email client on iPhone. Carsten Brinkschulte, CEO of Synchronica said, “The iPhone is a very attractive smartphone, appealing to both the consumer and prosumer market. Mobile Gateway already supports synchronization with Microsoft Exchange, but does not require firewall modification or any software to be installed in the corporate network… From a carrier’s perspective, we are significantly expanding the reach of the iPhone into the business user and prosumer segments.” [via MacWorld UK]
