The difference between E-mail and One Touch Mail is the PUSH function.
The One Touch Mail Push Mail messaging service notifies you with a specific sound and a message on your screen as soon as a new email arrives. Even when the application is in idle or in standby mode, the email messaging service on your mobile device is still available. When an email arrives and your device is in Push Mode OFF, the application will wake up and notify you that a new mail has arrived. If the Push Mode is "Off", the application will check with the server based on the intervals you set.
With Email in menu, all mails remain on the mail server until the recipient uses the Email program to poll the mail server.
