Mail proxy server, mail push system and method and mobile terminal

Abstract

The invention provides a mail proxy server, a mail push system, a mail push method and a mobile terminal. The mail proxy server comprises a configuration module, a position management module, and a mail processing response module, wherein the configuration module is used for ordering a mail push service and determining a mail push area; the position management module is used for determining the current position of the mobile terminal and judging whether the current position of the mobile terminal is positioned in the mail push area or not; and the mail processing response module is used for indicating to push a mail to the mobile terminal when the position management module determines that the current position of the mobile terminal is positioned in the mail push area. According to the invention, a user can judge whether to receive a push mail or not according to the position, so that the mail can be prevented from being repeatedly received; network transmission resources are saved; and the power consumption of the mobile terminal is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular, to a mail proxy server, a mail push system, a mail push method, and a mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] The push email (PushEmail) service refers to a service form in which emails received in a mailbox are pushed to a corresponding user's mobile terminal. [0003] The existing PushEmail system generally includes an email proxy server, an email push server, a mailbox, and a mobile terminal. When a new mail arrives, the mailbox notifies the mail proxy server that a new mail arrives, and the mail proxy server then notifies the push server to execute the mail push process to push the new mail to the mobile terminal. This allows users to receive e-mails on their mobile phones anytime, anywhere. [0004] However, PushEmail users often do not want to push all new emails, but want to be able to select the new emails to be pushed according to the actual...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] 2. Since it is impossible to decide whether to push emails according to the location of the user, the push service will be executed even for the emails that the user can receive in time next to the computer, so the load on the mail proxy server and the mail push server is heavy, and network transmission is wasted resource

[0008] 3. Since the power consumption when GPRS is turned on to receive emails is greater than the general operation of mobile phones, it also causes waste of terminal batteries, which is not environmentally friendly
