[IN DEVELOPMENT] PUSH via Jabber tool
 
This software has been released. It is called JPush.

Please visit this thread for more details.

------------------------------

This thread is to gather ideas for a PUSH via Jabber tool. I am currently looking for ideas on what to support, and possible names for the program. Read below for details on the program.

This software does require a program to be running on a server. How many people have access to a server that they could use for this (see the poll above)?

I would be willing to run a server, but this would require collecting donations (I can get a server to support plenty of people for ~$10 a month). This would require users to put their username and passwords on the server, or forward their emails to the server. Let me know what you think about this idea (this would of course be optional. You could run the server on your own computer).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This program uses an existing jabber account on the n900, and a server to enable pushing information to the device.

This currently supports push updates of new messages to the n900 (essentially push email for any email account, gmail, yahoo, etc without the battery, etc downsides of nokia messaging). In the future it will support push for other applications, such as TOR.

(In case anyone doesn't know, push is where the device is notified of new emails / other information instead of checking every x minutes to see if there is any new information).

This software does require the use of a linux server that can receive email. How many people have access to a server that they could use?

Hey, the title of your post is a bit misleading.....i thought it is a request or a problem/issue thread......Well now that I know its not the case then, Am all for it.....Go mate go...its definitely needed.
May I suggest changing the title of thread to something like [Announce] etc...to catch more eyeballs...its only a suggestion though.....

Happy developing:D

I am trying to gauge interest to decide if cleaning up the code to release it is worthwhile. If there is, I would clean it up, and make it more user friendly.

That's definitely very cool concept. I'm curious as to how well this would interface with the email client Eg. It'll open the email client much the same as with regular polled mode? Or is it simply an IM notification Eg "You've got a new email".

Are you using Telepathy Tubes for this, or just plain XMPP?

But yes, definitely interested.
