MIMOSA SYSTEMS FIRST TO DELIVER ANYTIME, ANYWHERE EMAIL ARCHIVE ACCESS
FROM BLACKBERRY, PALM & WINDOWS MOBILE MESSAGING DEVICES

Mimosa NearPoint Offers Fingertip Live Email Archive Access from a variety of heterogeneous Desktop Platforms, Internet Browsers and Mobile Devices

Santa Clara, Calif. – January 29, 2006 – Mimosa Systems™, a leader in unified information management solutions for enterprise content, today announced expanded platform coverage for Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft® Exchange Server, to include the industry’s first support for handheld messaging devices from market-leading mobile device vendors.  Additionally, this platform expansion includes rich support of popular Apple Macintosh mail clients and internet browsers, thus enabling “anytime, anywhere” access to archived email from any platform.

In addition to the rich archive access afforded to Microsoft Windows and Office users, Mimosa now delivers fingertip access to a user’s email, from RIM Blackberry, Windows Mobile 5 and Palm OS based handheld devices.

Users of the Apple Macintosh platform can now seamlessly access their Mimosa Archive from within native and third party mail and internet browsers available for the Apple platform. Mimosa Email archive access is supported from Entourage, Safari, Thunderbird, Firefox, and Opera.  
                                       
“Mobile messaging carries with it an enormous potential for improving the productivity of individuals in the workplace by freeing them from a desktop computer,” said Michael Osterman, president and founder, Osterman Research, Inc. “By providing secure search and access to a vast history of email from mobile devices, Mimosa is enabling everyday mobile road warriors to be more productive and is empowering the organization to speed business decision making and improve work flow.”

Osterman Research estimates that 41% of workplace email users will be using mobile messaging devices by 2009.  However, normal email access on mobile devices is usually just a small subset of the users’ current email, such as the last 10 days.  To improve the productivity of this growing number of mobile messaging device users, Mimosa NearPoint’s support for Blackberry, Palm and Windows Mobile 5 devices allows users to search and access any emails across a history of time, including deleted messages. This allows mobile user productivity to soar by putting all of their email information at their fingertips.

Mimosa NearPoint cross-platform features include:

• Quick Search: Users can securely search and access their historical and deleted content, for keywords and phrases found in email headers, bodies and attachments,
• Extended Message Access: Mimosa NearPoint extended and migrated email -- migrated as old and large email content off Exchange and on to the lower-cost NearPoint archive --  is now accessible by users from a variety of platforms.
• Mobile Legal Discovery: Mimosa enables corporate security officers and legal counsel on mobile devices and heterogeneous desktops, to search and access archived messages across mailboxes, to support legal discovery from anywhere.
• Deleted Item Restores: NearPoint allows users of mobile messaging devices to restore messages found by searching their email archive, back to their “inbox”.  

“The support for mobile and cross platform access to email in Mimosa NearPoint furthers our vision to empower the user-driven enterprise with anytime, anywhere visibility and access to enterprise content,” said T.M. Ravi, president and CEO, Mimosa Systems. “Enabling secure search and access to historical electronic business records by different stakeholders in the organization, helps drive significant improvement in corporate productivity and business performance.”

Availability:
The new Mimosa NearPoint cross platform support is available now in version 2.1 of Mimosa NearPoint for Exchange.
