Secure Mobilie Email Client For Real People

Shane Coughlan writes “The Mobility Email client is a secure mobile communication solution that runs without installation from virtually any location on a computer, USB stick or iPod. It is built around Mozilla code and has all the features of software like Mozilla Thunderbird. It also provides advanced security for private communication and local password, mail and account protection.

The Mobility Email client is designed to remove the single most significant obstacle to the use of encryption: complexity. It supports the S/MIME and OpenPGP signing and encryption standards. It is the first client to support the forthcoming DSA2 and SHA224 technologies and to be backward compatible with previously proposed standards like TIGER192. It allows users to lock their passwords, mail and account details with the same system used by the US government to protect top secret files. It even has pre-installed support for Webmail accounts like Hotmail, Yahoo! and AOL.

The Mobility Email client is a plug-and-go solution for Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/2003 PCs. It works with GNU/Linux machines through the WINE API. It is Free (as in Freedom) Software and will always be available without restrictions. Various components are released under the MPL or GPL licenses.

The Mobility Email client is available with an optional subscription to MobilityEmail.net – a service that provides users with a @mobilityemail.net email address, at least 250Mb of on-line storage, full IMAP / POP / SMTP / Webmail access, spam filtering and virus protection. The MobilityEmail.net service starts at just $2.08 per month.
