This section describes how to enable users to query Unwired Accelerator applications using an e-mail client.
Create a dedicated e-mail account, such as “askua,” on your mail system for Unwired Accelerator to check. Your e-mail system must provide pop3 access to this e-mail account.
Make a note of the following values:
Outbound e-mail server (smtp.host) – for example “smtp.pacbell.yahoo.com.”
Inbound e-mail server (pop.host) – for example “lab2k.sybase.com.”
E-mail account name – for example “askua.”
E-mail password – for example, “ua.”
Unwired Accelerator host name – for example, “localhost” or “lab2k.”
Unwired Accelerator port – the default port is 4040 if you are using Tomcat, 8080 if you are using EAServer.
Unwired Accelerator rid – the default resource identifier is “21.”
Navigate to:
%SYBASE%\UnwiredAccelerator70\tomcat\webapps\dejima \WEB-INF\classes
Open the uadejima.properties file in a text editor and set the property files for your environment, using information in Table 2-3.

Following is an example file:
smtp.host=out_mailserver.sybase.com smtp.auth=false pop.host=in_mailserver.sybase.com email.id=ua email.pwd=ua ua.host=localhost ua.port=4040 ua.rid=21 ua.reg.uri=/onepage/mpindex.jsp default.opal=/dbdsUnwired/wired.opal role.check=false application/msword=doc application/x-msexcel=xls application/pdf=pdf text/html=html text/plain=txt image/jpg=jpg image/giff=gif
Save the file and close it.
Restart the Tomcat application server as described in “Starting and stopping the Tomcat application server”.
If you are using Tomcat, open a Web browser window, enter the following and click Add:
http://hostname.domain:port/dejima/mail.jsp
Substitute your information, such as:
http://lab2k.sybase.com:4040/dejima/mail.jsp
Click Start. This starts the process that handles e-mail queries.
If you are using EAServer, open a Command Prompt window and navigate to %SYBASE%\UnwiredAccelerator70\scripts. At the command line, enter:
checkmail eas
To test the configuration, send an e-mail to the dedicated e-mail account, such as “askua.” Include the query on the subject line of the e-mail. See the Unwired Accelerator Developer’s Guide and the Mobile Application Development Tutorial for information.
