Abstract: An electronic mail (email) system may include at least one email server having mailboxes for storing email messages, and a plurality of mobile wireless communications devices. The system may further include at least one email aggregation server for repetitively polling the mailboxes for email messages, and forwarding the email messages to respective mobile wireless communications devices. The at least one email aggregation server may determine time overlapped polling of corresponding mailboxes and time stagger a next polling thereof.

Abstract: An electronic mail (email) server includes a proxy that obtains mappings for unique identifiers (UID's) corresponding to new electronic messages that have been determined form a polling operation. A Least Recently Used (LRU) cache caches each new message and releases from cache least recently used messages. A memory in which all messages within the LRU cache are spooled.

Abstract: An electronic mail (email) server has a database that stores unique identifiers (UID's) of electronic messages. A proxy obtains mappings from the database for previously existing UID's of electronic messages that have been determined from a polling operation. A cache caches the mappings of UID's and the proxy is operative for purging the cache of the previously existing UID's after polling.

Abstract: A system of provisioning a mobile wireless communications device to display account or device specific characteristics includes a database for storing a plurality of display characteristics for different wireless carriers, electronic mail (email) service providers, and device types. A configuration module accesses the database and uploads the display characteristics of at least one of the wireless carrier, email service provider or device type to the mobile wireless communications device upon provisioning of the mobile wireless communications device to access email from a remote location.

Abstract: A system, method and computer-readable medium provides configuration data, such as for electronic mail access. A configuration module retrieves the configuration data from a source of configuration data, such as a user system. The configuration in one aspect could be for accessing different electronic mailboxes of a user. Data object are generated. Each data object is submitted as a distributed object module to a web service. The web service in one aspect of the invention could be for a pass-through access for configuring electronic mailboxes.
