Openwave® Rich Mail

Email endures as one of the most popular internet applications and the strategic center around which the operator can build an expanded messaging and media experience.

Openwave Rich Mail enables communication service providers to offer a centralized hub for every type of communication - email, voice, tweets, IMs and social networking. Built on a flexible open source, widget-based framework, Rich Mail also enables subscribers to extensively personalize their messaging experience.
