SyncML Server

VisNetic MailServer subsystem for over-the-air synchronization of mailbox and PIM information (Calendars, Task, Notes, Contacts, Files, Journals) to devices and applications, independently on device type (PC application, PDA, smartphone), platform (Symbian, Palm, Windows Mobile, consumer phones), and carrier protocol (HTTP, OBEX, WSP..).

Highlights
What's unique to VisNetic MailServer's implementation is that the administrator doesn't have to take extra steps to enable remote synchronization. Thanks to tight integration of all server subsystems, there's no need to install, interconnect or configure anything.

  • Near zero configuration on server side
  • Fully automated client identification, protocol compatibility adjustment
  • Authentication policies, client management and logging
  • Plain and MD5 authentication schema plus server forced
  • 128-bit end-to-end SSL encryption (requires public key on client)
  • Certified and tested with MDAs, Nokia smartphones and HP PDAs
  • Widest range of data types- email and folders via IMAP, all GroupWare objects, files
  • No client licensing fees, no extra fees to carriers or OEM vendors
Simple Client Settings
Setting the synchronization on a client device is just as simple as on the server. Additional steps might involve installing/upgrading client software or SSL certificate.
  • Set URI of the SyncML server: http://yourdomain.com/syncml/index.html
  • Enter Email Address and Password
  • Set resource types to Default Sync folders, aliases or custom folders
  • Default Sync folders: Contacts, Events/Calendar, Journal, Notes, Tasks, Mail
  • Select manual or scheduled synchronization
Technology
SyncML Server offers the best available compatibility, the widest support of object types and data formats, and extensibility options exceeding any other protocol.
  • SyncML 1.1 and lower
  • SyncML 1.2 (OMA DS) mail filters
  • XML or WBXML formatted communication
  • gzip compression improves performance
  • All 6 sync types: 2-way (normal, slow), 1-way (refresh/update client/server)
  • Two extra sync types: 1-way slow sync to client/to server
  • Supports Versit Objects, Funambol SIF(S4J) groupware data formats
  • Supports OMA DS Email Data Object and Plain mail data formats
  • Supports OMA DS File Data Object format
  • Automatic database corruption and client error detection
  • PDO abstraction layer for access to database of choice
  • Directory aliases support for synchronization of localized folders
  • Integrates with GroupWare- robust database, Outlook compatible repository
  • Debug logs with timestamps for performance measurements
  • URL Commands for testing (safe force sync type, format)
Requirements
  • Native or 3rd party SyncML client installed on mobile device
  • GroupWare module and a configured database is a prerequisite
  • Mobile data (GSM, GPRS, EDGE, CDMA, HSDPA), Wi-fi or cable connection
  • Carrier-enabled Internet data access (cost depends on carrier and calling plan)
