MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- PostPath, creator of the only email and collaboration server that is a drop-in alternative to Microsoft Exchange, announced today that it fully supports Apples new iPhone 3G and iPhone 2.0 software. PostPath is the only non-Microsoft server that provides native ActiveSync support with no plug-in or middleware enabling users to take full advantage of the iPhone’s intuitive UI and the productivity benefits of mobile access to email, collaboration and shared calendaring. The iPhone’s Mail and Calendar applications are also supported with no plug-in, nothing to download and no modification to the device configuration.

In addition to iPhone 2.0, the PostPath Server’s native support includes mixed environments and the spectrum of enterprises' most popular devices, including iPhone, BlackBerry®, Windows Mobile, and other ActiveSync-enabled devices. With the PostPath Server, enterprise customers — including iPhone users — have access to full-feature, enterprise-grade messaging and collaboration at a significantly lower cost than Microsoft Exchange. Organizations can take advantage of the operational efficiency and cost savings of the PostPath server to roll out large mailboxes and mobile messaging to their users much easier and cheaper than with Exchange 2007.

The increasing reliance on email and mobile devices to support day-to-day business needs creates new messaging and collaboration requirements. Enterprises need the flexibility and performance of the PostPath Server and its native interoperability capabilities with Outlook, Active Directory Exchange and the rest of its ecosystem.

“We are seeing strong demand from our customers for iPhone support, and we applaud Apple’s new offering,” said Duncan Greatwood, president and CEO of PostPath. “We’ve already been successfully using the iPhone 2.0 Beta alongside our own production systems. As the only company to provide seamless support for ActiveSync on the iPhone 2.0, PostPath gives businesses the flexibility to support their mobile users with any device they choose. We're seeing strong growth in the enterprise market, and iPhone 2.0 is another indication of the importance of flexibility and native interoperability. Customers now have an open enterprise mobile platform capable of shared calendaring and email with large mailboxes, mobile CRM and custom applications built for their enterprise’s specific needs.”
