Rolling out the product called TNM Corporate Mobile Mail in Blantyre, TNM technical officer, David Chetty touted it as the most convenient for the corporate world as it has several features that include Microsoft Outlook, which will enable business executives to, continue linking up with partners outside business hours.

TNM says users will now be able to stay connected on the go, retrieve office mail, keep track of one's calendar, stay in touch with user's contacts browse internet and manage business documents using mobile versions of familiar Microsoft applications like outlook and office.
