Overview
Mobile Sync was rolled out by Rackspace in 2012, allowing synchronization of Webmail's email, contacts and calendar and mobile devices such as iPhones and Androids. This service costs $1 per month per mailbox.
Mobile Sync is for Rackspace Webmail only. If you use Microsoft Outlook, then this is not the service for you. Instead, you'll want a Microsoft Exchange account to synchronize email, contacts and calendar items between Outlook and your mobile devices. |
Mobile Sync
This new feature syncs the email, contacts and calendar from Webmail with your mobile device such as your iPhone or Android device. This is a great addition because not only does it synchronize the email, contacts and your calendar between your handheld device and the web, but it also provides a backup if you ever lose your phone. Never again will you have to re-enter your contacts or calendar if you lose your phone or replace your device.
