BSNL introduces BlacMail a push email applicationBSNL, The state-owned telecommunications company has joined hands with mobile applications and technology firm of Banglore  “Fifth C solutions”, to offer BlacMail – a push email mobile application that works without GPRS on most mobile phones. With it, you can get your mails on your phone, just like in smart-phones, anytime, anywhere.

BlacMail enables customers having accounts with most public email systems to instantly receive email notifications on a wide variety of phone models – from inexpensive and popular models to smart phones – with a user experience available today only on high-end pushmail services on expensive smart phones.

BlacMail crashes the barrier of affordability required for mass-market adoption of the service by eliminating the need for GPRS connectivity required of all other push mail services. With push mail services emerging as a key mobile user need, BSNL plans to deploy BlacMail as a mass-market VAS service as it does not require the customer to have a GPRS data plan and leave them vulnerable to unexpected data charges or lack of service on data connectivity problems that has become increasingly common.
