SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING ENCODED MESSAGES FOR EXCHANGE WITH A MOBILE DATA COMMUNICATION DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method for processing an encrypted message at a host system before the message is transmitted to a wireless mobile communication device, the method comprising:
- storing at the host system a private encryption key for decoding messages encrypted with a first encryption algorithm;
receiving the encrypted message at the host system, the encrypted message being encrypted using the first encryption algorithm;
decrypting the encrypted message at the host system using the stored private encryption key;
processing the decrypted message to reformat the decrypted message into a format for the wireless mobile communication device;
re-encrypting the decrypted message at the host system; and
transmitting the re-encrypted message to the wireless mobile communication device.

Abstract
A system and method are provided for pre-processing encrypted and/or signed messages at a host system before the message is transmitted to a wireless mobile communication device. The message is received at the host system from a message sender. There is a determination as to whether any of the message receivers has a corresponding wireless mobile communication device. For each message receiver that has a corresponding wireless mobile communication device, the message is processed so as to modify the message with respect to one or more encryption and/or authentication aspects. The processed message is transmitted to a wireless mobile communication device that corresponds to the first message receiver. The system and method may include post-processing messages sent from a wireless mobile communications device to a host system. Authentication and/or encryption message processing is performed upon the message. The processed message may then be sent through the host system to one or more receivers.
