MailPronto is offering what it describes as an alternative to Apple’s MobileMe service. The company offers hosted exchange, hosted e-mail and managed e-mail services.
MailPronto is US$8.95 a month per e-mailbox, and it’s based on the Microsoft Hosted Exchange platform. Like MobileMe, MailPronto provides real-time e-mail exchange. It also manages all e-mail-related services and stores calendar and contact information through its online server.
MailPronto supports both iPhone 2.0 and iPhone 3G. Additional customer benefits include: Free Outlook 2007 Software; Free Virus and Spam Filtering; Free ActiveSync for Treo/PocketPC; Free Outlook Mobile Access; and 2GB of Mailbox Space. Plus, MailPronto’s Hosted Exchange service is fully compatible with Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007 and Entourage.
