What kind of OS is running on each? Why not use an email server like Exchange or hMailserver on the LAN, and the built in mail client on your desktop and PDA?

Visit http://www.thecloud.net.nz for New Zealand based Hosted Exchange, Virtual Servers, Web Hosting, FTP Backup & more.

Sorry, i forgot to tell ya..
MS OS use in all. May I know the better and easy way to send message at all.
I think, exchange server was a bit complex to configure & i'm not professional at all. :(

You could always use an instant message program such as Live Messenger on your PC and Live Messenger on your PDA (or any other program such as Fring).

Of course each of the devices would require a unique login in this case.

I didn't use Live Messenger before. Is it support messaging in W-LAN?
You mean, unique login to which? Domain server?

Anyway, thanks for ur all reply and hope you all can share idea.

I am talking about IM software Windows Live Messenger or also known as MSN Messenger. Some Windows Mobile devices come with Windows Live Messenger already - if not you can use Fring.

I thought you said you wanted in the LAN - Fring will work in a LAN, no need for the mobile data...
