Nokia mobile email for Wind in Italy

Nokia and Italian operator, Wind Telecomunicazioni S.p.A., have signed a contract that will integrate a customized remote mobile email platform into the operator’s network and host the commercial service. The hosting model allows Wind to focus on marketing and developing its customer relationship while Nokia takes care of mobile email operations and service availability.

The service, branded as Leonardo Mail and Leonardo WEB Mail, is based on Nokia Intellisync Wireless Email solution and provides mobile email, attachment handling, calendar, contacts and tasks to Wind enterprise customers.

Nokia Intellisync Wireless Email provides operators with a range of email solutions that spans virtually all market segments, from basic consumer email to a sophisticated, enterprise-class mobile email server for large groupware environments. The sophistication of the solution gives operators the ability to evolve into true mobile solution providers.

Wind Telecomunicazioni SpA is one of the few European telecom operators, which offers integrated fixed, mobile and Internet services. In Italy, Wind is the third mobile operator with a market share of over 19% and 14.5 mln subscribers, and the first alternative fixed operator with 1 mln unbundled local loop customers. Wind’s Libero is the first Italian Internet Portal and the company is among the major Italian Internet service providers (ISPs).
