Why Momail is not on the iPhone App Store

While in Barcelona at the Mobile World Congress last week, I was often asked if Momail was on the iPhone App Store. As Momail works quite well on the iPhone, one might think it would be a natural fit. However, the answer is no. The reasons for this include:

- Momail is not an application, it works off the native email platform present within most handsets, including the iPhone. Therefore, to use Momail, you just go to Mail -> Settings -> Add Account -> Other, and follow the directions here.

- Momail works better than Apple's native email application. Not only does Momail optimize email to minimize the amount of data used, but we handle more types of attachments, everything from graphics to vcs files, as well as "collect" multiple webmail accounts into one.

So, to borrow Apple's own tagline, "Think Different", and try Momail on your iPhone. Check it out at www.momail.com, and tell us what you think!
