NEW! Inbound MMS technology now available

Email4group is proud to offer reverse-billed, inbound MMS technology to its clients for the very first time. This new service opens the way for a multitude of user-interactive picture and video messaging services.

Games, ringtones, logos and pictures

To view email4group's own mobile content site please visit www.email4ringtones.com. This is a fully operational site that could be fully branded and customised on behalf of interested 3rd parties. It is constantly maintained and updated so that the latest ringtones, games and mobile content are always available.

SMS text alerts

To see our horseracing results service in action, text result to 88418. Results can be requested before or after races have been run with the message being delivered just after the horses cross the finish-line. The service has been designed to understand many different formats for results' requests and helpful error messages containing the available race courses or correct race times are returned when the message cannot be understood. By not specifying a race time users receive all the results from their chosen course. i.e. result ascot 3.15 for a specific race or result ascot for all the results from Ascot on a particular day. This application is easily adapted to offer other mobile content services, with the powerful subscription engine underlying the product being common to all other messaging applications provided by email4group.

MMS messaging

In February 2004, in and out-bound "operator MMS" services became available in the UK for the first time. This opens up a whole new field of digital interactivity, whereby users can not only send MMS messages containing pictures, text, audio and even video to receiving terminals on a live basis e.g. to TV shows and websites, but also receive MMS messages to their mobile phone via request/response and subscription services.

Email4group are currently one of only a handful of companies in the UK to offer such carrier-grade services and believe that applications such as these will lead the way into the next generation of user-interactive messaging services.
