Newgen Software, a global provider of low code digital automation platform, has announced that the Indian patent office has granted a patent (No. 351944) for its invention entitled Remote E-mail Access through Short Message Service (SMS) for a term of 20 years commencing from the 16th day of February 2010 in accordance with the provisions of the Patents Act, 1970.
The technology enables mobile phones (especially a feature phone) to access email remotely using an SMS or a multimedia messaging service (MMS). It paraphrases the email and converts to a format which is communicable as an SMS/MMS. Further, there is an intelligent message filter and processor which removes the extra information, such as advertisements, disclaimers, and images from the email. The user can reply in the format of an SMS which is then transmitted to the sender as an email.
