Information exchange in wireless servers
View Patent ↗Systems and methods for wireless systems provide a mechanism for resource sharing. In an embodiment, e-mail messages is routed between mobile wireless clients without first processing the e-mail message through an external e-mail domain identified in the e-mail message. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
1. A system comprising:
a wireless server communicatively operable with a plurality of mobile wireless clients, the wireless server including:
a database configured to store information associated with users of the mobile wireless clients including a user identification for each mobile wireless client;
a hardware controller operatively coupled to the database;
an e-mail proxy to collect e-mails from one or more external e-mail domains external to the wireless server, each collected e-mail corresponding to a user identification; and
an e-mail agent to support e-mail services of the mobile wireless clients correlated to the user identifications, the e-mail services including coordinating the sending and receiving of e-mail from each e-mail domain corresponding to the user identifications; and
wherein the e-mail agent is configured to route an e-mail message directly between the mobile wireless clients without first processing the e-mail message through an external e-mail domain identified in the e-mail message; and
further wherein the e-mail agent is configured to update the external e-mail domains after the e-mail message is routed so that the external e-mail domains have a record of the e-mail from the external domain being sent or received between the mobile wireless clients.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the e-mail domains external to the wireless server include an e-mail domain based on a post office protocol (POP), an e-mail domain based on an internet message access protocol (IMAP), or e-mail domains based on POP and IMAP.
3. A method comprising:
a wireless server communicating with a plurality of mobile wireless clients using a hardware controller;
storing information associated with users of the mobile wireless clients including a user identification for each mobile wireless client;
collecting e-mails from one or more external e-mail domains external to the wireless server, each collected e-mail corresponding to a user identification;
supporting e-mail services of the mobile wireless clients correlated to the user identifications, the e-mail services including coordinating the sending and receiving of e-mail from each e-mail domain corresponding to the user identifications;
routing an e-mail message directly between the mobile wireless clients without first processing the e-mail message through an external e-mail domain identified in the e-mail message; and
further comprising updating the external e-mail domains after the e-mail message is routed so that the external e-mail domains have a record of the e-mail from the external domain being sent or received between the mobile wireless clients.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the e-mail domains external to the wireless server include an e-mail domain based on a post office protocol (POP), an e-mail domain based on an internet message access protocol (IMAP), or e-mail domains based on POP and IMAP.
5. A machine-readable non-transitory storage medium having instructions stored thereon, which, when performed by a machine, cause the machine to perform a method comprising:
collecting, using a hardware controller of the machine, e-mails from one or more external e-mail domains external to a wireless server, each collected e-mail corresponding to a user identification;
supporting e-mail services of one or more mobile wireless clients correlated to the user identifications, the e-mail services including coordinating the sending and receiving of e-mail from each e-mail domain corresponding to the user identifications;
routing an e-mail message directly between the mobile wireless clients without first processing the e-mail message through an external e-mail domain identified in the e-mail message; and
further comprising updating the external e-mail domains after the e-mail message is routed so that the external e-mail domains have a record of the e-mail from the external domain being sent or received between the mobile wireless clients.
6. The machine-readable non-transitory storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the e-mail domains external to the wireless server include an e-mail domain based on a post office protocol (POP), an e-mail domain based on an internet message access protocol (IMAP), or e-mail domains based on POP and IMAP.
