Now it is possible to receive emails on your mobile without using GPRS.
This has been made possible by a new application called
BlacMail. BlacMail,
launched by BSNL, is a mobile app that allows you to receive and send emails
on your mobile phone instantly, without GPRS.
BlacMail allows you to connect with other popular web mail service providers
like Yahoo! Mail, Gmail and Hotmail as well as popular social networking sites
like Facebook, Orkut and Twitter. Additionally, it allows you to share job

Presently, this pushmail service is available only in certain places in southern
India. However, BSNL plans to launch the service nationwide soon.
