Movamail offers mobile e-mail
Supposedly they've had 0.5M downloads of the e-mail software of the same name, and it's the #1 download on GetJAR (a popular download portal for Java/J2ME applications).
"MovaMail is one of the few applications on our portal to have proven maximum cross device compatibility" Quote by Serge Korotkoff, GetJar project manager.
I get the impression that it's based on a gateway service talking to the actual mail servers, and that way optimising the communication with the phone.
The trial software can be used for 60 days. After that it's $30 a year.
Many (most?) phones have integrated e-mail clients nowadays, but usability and network traffic wise this might be better. I'll have to test it.
