Here’s the PR that went out this morning http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/11/prweb566459.htm
Even though setting up Renzoo is easy I’ll briefly run through the basic steps that are necessary to start getting your mail on the go.
Getting Started with Renzoo
I’ll presume that you have already successfully signed up for the service.
- Add Email Accounts that you wish to access from your mobile. In most cases it should be enough to enter your mailbox’s email address and password. Renzoo will try to find the rest of your provider’s server details automatically. If it can’t find them you’ll have the option to enter them yourself. Choose how often you wish your mailbox to be checked for new emails and save. That’s it! You are now setup to start getting alerts and accessing emails on your mobile.
- Renzoo default behaviour is that all emails that arrive to any of your registered mailboxes will send alerts to your mobile. That’s not necessarily what you might want. This is where mobile rules are helpful. You can define rules as which emails will send alerts e.g. only urgent emails or emails from your spouse etc. You can still access all other emails from your mobile but alerts will be sent only for mails that match the specified rule criteria.
- You control when alerts are active by setting days of week and time, manually enabling/disabling them or selecting automatic presence control. With presence controlled alerts Renzoo uses Skype status to sense when you are away from the computer to activate alerts. Presence control currently supports only Skype for Windows (other IM/Chat clients will be added soon). For this to work you’ll need to install a plugin, downloadable from the Alerts section when Presence alert control selected.
