Abstract
A method for pushing email in heterogeneous networks as well as a mobile terminal and a server are disclosed. The method comprise steps of: sending a mail notification including at least mail priority and mail size of the email from a mail-pushing server to a mobile terminal; determining, by the mobile terminal, a download strategy for the email based on at least one predefined threshold, said mail priority and said mail size; and downloading said email from the mail-pushing server based on the determined download strategy. With the above solutions, it is possible to seamlessly integrate the long standby duration in the WAN mode with free-of-charge and high speed in the LAN mode and thus give a full play to these advantages. Moreover, the mobile terminal can select automatically the most suitable mail access strategy based on network condition and mail size for the simultaneous realization of effective power saving and efficient transmission.
