Press Release Summary = Hosted Zimbra CS from SMS is first hosting service in the UK to properly support Apple Mac users
Press Release Body = Simply Mail Solutions, the UK's Email Hosting specialists have launched a new email service that for the first time properly supports Apple Macintosh email applications such as Apple Mail and Apple collaboration tools.
Commented Colin Smith, Managing Director of SMS: "We wanted to be able to host an enhanced email package that supported Apple and UNIX users fully. We have found this with the award winning Zimbra CS server software. It syncs properly with the Apple applications and has a really superb AJAX based web mail interface allowing users to do everything while on the move. All our accounts include free use of a domain which means that the account is then a PIE (Provider Independent Email) account which so users no longer have to change their email address if they change their ISP. This is important because switching is much easier and common than it used to be with all the 'free' offers now available. And at £3.99 per month we have been able to make it really competitive"
He added \"We\'ve made it very simple for Mac users to sync their calendar and contact data with SMS Zimbra CS. There are no additional software packages needed. SMS Zimbra CS will sync natively with Apple iCal and Apple Address Book.\"
Simply Mail Solutions also offers two other email hosting options: SMS Nexgen UNIX based POP3 email but with advanced features and Microsoft Exchange Hosting - particularly strong for its mobile computing features with Windows Mobile 5. In all cases customers can opt for individual mailboxes on the company's servers or have servers dedicated to their own use.
One strong feature of the company's offerings is the ability to use the same domain across the range of services - e.g. customers can have POP3 mailboxes for £1.00 per month and enhanced mailboxes using Microsoft Exchange for £5.99 per month all with the same @yourorganisation.com email address.
About Simply Mail Solutions The company is based in Warrington UK and has a rapidly growing user base. SMS complements its email hosting services with web hosting and broadband access.
