Abstract: Mailbox pooling pre-emptive criteria is set forth for use in an adaptive polling system for synchronizing data between a mail server and a mobile communication device. The polling engine stores an indication of the number of messages in the mailbox, the total mailbox size (i.e. the used storage size in bytes), and the last message ID from the last poll. In the next poll, the polling engine retrieves this information from the mailbox and checks against the values stored from the last poll. If the information is the same, then there is no need to compare the message ID list. Whenever either the number of messages in the mailbox or the mailbox size or last message ID has changed, then the full comparison of the message ID list is performed.

Abstract: An electronic mail (email) communication system includes a mobile office platform. A direct access proxy accesses an electronic mailbox of the user and pushes email from the electronic mailbox of the user to a wireless communications device. A web client engine is operative with the mobile office platform and includes a port agent module that communicates with the wireless communications device over a port agent connection. It is operative to receive a message from a wireless communications device as a request corresponding to a job to be completed. A worker module receives the message from the port agent module and completes the job. The web client engine attempts to process jobs within a specified delay time, and if successful, transmits an acknowledgment (ACK) to indicate the job has been completed without saving the message to a jobstore database. If the job has not been completed within a specified delay time, the message can be saved to the database.
