System and method for pushing information from a host system to a mobile data communication device
First Claim
1. A method for processing messages at a mobile communications device, wherein a first message is received at a first computer identified by a first address, and a second message is received at a second computer identified by a second address, and wherein the first and second messages are redirected from the first and second computers to the mobile communications device, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving the first message at the mobile communications device, wherein the first message is packaged within an envelope addressed using a third address that identifies the mobile communications device;
removing the envelope from the first message;
displaying the first message at the mobile communications device;
generating a first reply message to the first message, wherein the first reply message is addressed using the first address as an originating address of the first reply message;
receiving the second message at the mobile communications device, wherein the second message is packaged within an envelope addressed using the third address that identifies the mobile communications device;
removing the envelope from the redirected second message;
displaying the second message at the mobile communications device; and
generating a second reply message to the second message, wherein the second reply message is addressed using the second address as an originating address of the second reply message.

Abstract
A system and method for pushing information from a host system to a mobile data communication device upon sensing a triggering event is disclosed. A redirector program operating at the host system enables a user to continuously redirect certain user-selected data items from the host system to the user'"'"'s mobile data communication device upon detecting that one or more user-defined triggering events has occurred. The redirector program operates in connection with event generating applications and repackaging systems at the host system to configure and detect a particular user-defined event, and then to repackage the user-selected data items in an electronic wrapper prior to pushing the data items to the mobile device.

6. A mobile communications device for processing messages, wherein a first message is received at a first computer identified by a first address, and a second message is received at a second computer identified by a second address, and wherein the first and second messages are redirected from the first and second computers to the mobile communications device, comprising:
-
means for receiving the first message at the mobile communications device, wherein the first message is packaged within an envelope addressed using a third address that identifies the mobile communications device;
means for removing the envelope from the first message;
means for displaying the first message at the mobile communications device;
means for generating a first reply message to the first message, wherein the first reply message is addressed using the first address as an originating address of the first reply message;
means for receiving the second message at the mobile communications device, wherein the second message is packaged within an envelope addressed using the third address that identifies the mobile communications device;
means for removing the envelope from the redirected second message;
means for displaying the second message at the mobile communications device; and
means for generating a second reply message to the second message, wherein the second reply message is addressed using the second address as an originating address of the second reply message.

7. A wireless mobile communications device associated with a first computer system identified by a first electronic address, wherein the first computer system includes a wireless redirector component for redirecting messages from the first computer system to the wireless mobile communications device, comprising:
-
a receiver for receiving a redirected message from the first computer system;
a memory for storing the redirected message;
a message generator for generating a reply message to the redirected message at the mobile device using the first electronic address of the first computer system as an originating address of the reply message; and
a transmitter for transmitting the reply message to the first computer system. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
