  • On average OCENS Mail is about 7 to 10 times faster than competition in delivering email.
  • Transfers emails 20 times faster than with basic Outlook Express.
  • Works with your existing email software such as Outlook Express, Thunderbird and others or with included iScribe email Client.

  • Available for Windows and Mac OSX (10.4+)

Really technical stuff. The technology used in the OCENS Mail program is optimized specifically for E-Mail transfers. Many of our competitors offer compression technologies that fail to perform as well as ours simply because they blindly compress everything that comes over the line.

OCENS Mail is designed specifically to reduce the number of line turnarounds while additionally benefiting from compression. The proprietary E-Mail protocol eliminates ALL line turnarounds by sending large compressed streams of data to a server process running at our central location. The server unpacks the data stream and then carries out the standard SMTP "chat" to send the mail. Receiving mail uses the same wireless enhanced technology.

All incoming mail is collected by the server packaged into one compressed stream of data which is sent to the e-mail client in one unidirectional transfer. The E-Mail client parses through the data breaking it up into individual mail messages and presents them to you for viewing.

Wireless Interfaces. OCENS Mail supports any wireless interface running Windows Dial Up or email service that accepts attachments. Simply select your connection!
