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.

a mobile office platform comprising a direct access proxy for accessing an electronic mailbox of the user and pushing email from the electronic mailbox of the user to a wireless communications device;
a web client engine operative with the mobile office platform, and comprising a port agent module that communicates with the wireless communications device over an SRP connection and operative to receive a message from a wireless communications device as a request corresponding to a job to be completed, and a worker module that receives the message from the port agent module for completing the job; and a database for storing any messages as requests, wherein the web client engine is operative for attempting to process the job within a specified delay time, and if successful, transmitting an Acknowledgement (ACK) back to the wireless communications device to indicate the job has been completed without saving the message as a request to said database, and if the job has not been completed within a specified delay time, saving the message as a request in the database and transmitting an ACK back to the wireless communications device indicating that the message as a request had been received and is stored at said database.
2. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 1, and further comprising a relay module that receives any messages from a wireless communications device and transfers any messages to an available port agent module.
3. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 2, wherein said relay module is operative for receiving an ACK
from a port agent module and transferring the ACK to the wireless communications device.
from a port agent module and transferring the ACK to the wireless communications device.
4. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 3, wherein said port agent module is operative for delaying the transmission of an ACK back to the relay module while a worker module is assigned the request corresponding to the job to be completed.
5. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 3, wherein said relay module is operative for retrying communication with a port agent module if an ACK is not received within a specified delay time.
6. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 1, wherein said port agent transmits an ACK until it receives an indication that the request corresponding to the job to be completed is committed, completed or failed.
7. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 1, wherein said database comprises a port agent jobstore.
8. The electronic mail communications system according to Claim 1, wherein said message comprises a Message From Handheld (MFH) data packet.
9. A method for communicating between a user of a wireless communications device and an electronic mail (email) server, which comprises:
receiving at the email server from the wireless communications device a message as a request corresponding to a job to be completed at the email server;
attempting to process the job within a specified delay time, and if successful, transmitting an Acknowledgement (ACK) back to the wireless communications device to indicate that the job has been completed without saving the message as a request to a database; and if the job has not been completed within the specified delay time, saving the message as a request in a database and transmitting an ACK back to the wireless communications device indicating that the message as a request has been received at the email server and is stored at a database.
