          Appeal No. 2003-2074                                                        
          Application No. 09/095,325                                                  

          host computer, and not from the mobile client.  Further, a                  
          “continuously forwarding” feature provides for messages received            
          at the host computer to be “pushed” to the mobile client, so that           
          the mobile client does not need to take a proactive step in order           
          to have the messages received at the host computer forwarded to             
          the mobile client.                                                          
               Representative independent claim 33 is reproduced as                   
          follows:                                                                    
               33. A method of forwarding messages between a host system              
          and a mobile client, comprising the steps of:                               
               establising a session based on loaded parameters at the host           
          system;                                                                     
               maintaining the session at the host system and querying the            
          host system;                                                                
               receiving messages directed to a first address at the host             
          system from a plurality of message senders;                                 
               in response to a query, continuously forwarding the                    
          messsages from the host system to the mobile client;                        
               receiving the messages at the mobile client;                           
               generating reply messages at the mobile client to be sent to           
          the plurality of message senders and transmitting the reply                 
          messages to the host system;                                                
               receiving the reply messages at the host system and                    
          configuring the reply messages such that it will appear to the              
          plurality of message senders that the reply messages originated             
          at the first address associated with the host system; and                   

                                         -2-
