2.0 and push email

I have a 1st gen iphone and I have gmail as my email on my iphone. I have been trying to keep up with updates about what 2.0 will be like and I have a question. Will you only be able to have "push email" if you have a MobileMe acct or will I be able to get push with my gmail?

Push email will only be offered from MobleMe, Exchange and Yahoo (presumably they won't turn it off). Google has not announced any push service for the iPhone.

  • IPhone 3G and Push Email Notifications

    Hello everyone.
    Before I got my iphone, I used to own a blackberry, and push email was my main form of communication on it. I cannot begin to describe how amazing push email was on the blackberry - the moment an email was sent to my address my blackberry picked it up right away, I'd say within 10 seconds. Now, I have an iPhone 3G OS 3.1 with mobileme email set up to use push email. I don't know if i'm the only person experiencing this...but push notification my foot... sometimes I don't even get notified of emails until I open the mail app myself and do a manual check. I have mobile me on my iPhone set to push, I have push in the settings menu set to on... I don't know what else to do.
    I'd be happy to hear of other peoples experiences with MobileMe push mail on the iPhone. My account expires in two weeks...maybe I'd be better switching to push mail with gmail? I might give that a try this evening.
    Regards
    Seb

    Just playing for more hours! Push works lightning fast if you enter anything onto MobileMe, it syncs to Iphone in less than 20 secs, Mail email, contacts and calendar.
    The problem is I am using with Entourage 2008 that supposed to sync with Ical and Address Book, this is either not working or coming through ad hoc or taking hours to Iphone, this is not push email like above.
    MobileMe is fine as a standalone push system back to Iphone, but what about me using Entourage to manage all my mailboxes and data to iphone.

  • BT Mail and push email on iPhone

    I have just been migrated to BT Mail from BT Yahoo. On both my iPhone 4s, running iOS7, and my iPad, the BT Mail does not give the option for push email, just fetch. Does BT Mail not support push email? I need my push email back - fetch, even every 15 mintes is not sufficient for my needs, and it a backward step. I want email pushed to my devices as soon as it hits the server. Can this be fixed? Also I have a problem with the BT website, when I log in with my email address and password it takes me from the BT.com website to BT Yahoo, which no longer contains my emails. Why is this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The new BTMail does not support push email.
    If you have been migrated your emails are no longer on Yahoo's servers so they won't be there. You need to set up your BTID
    Try using this link to log into your emails. If you have just been migrated it should take you through the migration process.

  • Leopard Mail Services vs. Push Email

    I've searched around and only found info on Leopard Mail client and push email. Does Leopard Server's Mail Services support Push Email? Thanks.

    Leopard Server's default cyrus imap server implementation comes with 'idle' support compiled in. Do a research for 'IMAP IDLE' and see if it does the job for you. IMHO 'Push Email' is just marketing talk for mentioned feature + well designed and executed mail server setup.

  • Push email (MS exchange) works intermittently after upgrade to ios 5.1 and ios 5.1.1

    I have an iphone 4 with my office email (MS exchange) account configured. Other accounts are Gmail & iCloud.
    Office email is configured as Push, Gmail as Fetch and iCloud as Push.
    Till ios 5.0.x everything was fine. Office emails were getting pushed and there were no issues.
    However after upgrading/restore to ios 5.1 & then 5.1.1 push email mostly does not work.
    Few observations :
    1. Push email works fine when I am at home on wi-fi.
    2. When I leave home for work (therefore on 3G), mails stop getting pushed. Sometimes they get pushed for a period of 1 to 2 hours. Then they stop
    3. Manually fetching office mails also does not work
    4. Strangle accessing the office webmail site in Safari https://mail.xxxxx.com does NOT work. While i can load other sites in safari, the mail site does not load.
    5. In office sometimes in the lift phone switches from 3G to Edge or no signal and then when out of the lift, suddenly mails get pushed, but then stop after some time.
    6. Moment I get onto wi-fi, push emails start working
    7. There is no issue with accessing gmail.
    8. Other push notifications work (gmail app, facebook notifications etc)
    9. There have been no changes to our MS exchange server
    10. I have tried the usual stuff of resetting network settings, rebooting the phone, killing the mail app, going to airplane mode, deleting the mail a/c and recreating etc etc. But no luck.
    Apart from upgrading/restoring to 5.1 and then 5.1.1, there have been no changes. The upgrades were done OTA, restore from 5.1.1.
    However both times I have not set the phone as new and have restored backups.
    Is anybody facing a similar issue ?
    Any suggestions ?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?

  • Reliability and Speed of Yahoo Push Email

    Is anyone else finding Yahoo "push" email to be unreliable?
    I find when it works, it works well, and I get emails that I send from a home email server in less than 1 minute. However sometimes it seems to fail completely or take a very long time. By fail I mean that the push fails, I can still pick up the email with a manual email poll.
    I have ""Auto-Check" set to manual. So the only email that should work without a manual poll.
    I'd be interested to hear the experiences of others?

    I was unable to get Yahoo to recognize a different Reply-to: address, even when that was set up using the Yahoo web interface. That, plus the fact that it adds an ad at the bottom of each email made it a non-starter for me.
    After a bit of a struggle, I was able to get Gmail set up and working just fine. Yes, you don't get the push mail, but hopefully they will add push IMAP at some point and all these problems will be moot.

  • Will the iPhone 3G and/or 2.0 software give push email for all email?

    ..instead of just MobileMe? I'd really like consistent push email for my gmail and yahoo! email accounts similar to the blackberry. Will I be getting this? I don't have a mobileme account nor desire to pay $90 for it.

    Then if you don't want to pay for it, you are not going to get it.
    Push requires the provider of the email service to give Push abilities. MobileMe allows you to tie it (which has Push) into your other accounts (that don't).
    BTW, Yahoo does do push already (has since day 1 with 1st gen iPhones).
    Google may one day knowing them.

  • Problem with push email key and adding mailbox

    There seems to be a strange problem with the email key. I added my gmail account initially but then i deleted it. I don't see any mailbox in the email setup, but i still receive notification on recieving a new email. But when I press the push email key on the home screen to open my inbox, it takes me to the email setup. I tried adding a mailbox, but when i select "add mailbox" the screen becomes whitish and nothing happens.
    I need to add my gmail account again. Please help me with this. Thanks!

    1. Predictive text can only be enabled in alphanumeric keypad, but from testing the QuickOffice 6 on the 5800 (same app used for both phones), It cannot use predictive text. Its not in the typing options. Furthermore, if you would be using the qwerty keyboard on the mini, predictive text AFAIK cannot be used.
    2. If using "vodaphone live" is giving an error in ALL applications, then it is not the fault of your phone but of the "vodaphone live" settings not being compatible to your phone. I assumed that it was only for email that it did not work. A similar case was one on T-mobile, wherein the T-mobile GPRS settings were incorrect which leads to the same issue as you do. The fix was to configure GPRS settings manually. You can also take it to vodaphone for them to configure it themselves.
    3. As I said, unless we find out what is different from the files that can play and cannot I cannot help you. Its not like I can check the files themselves. You can try attaching two each of the working files and non working files here for some of us to test on our phones.

  • C6-00. PUSH EMAIL not working and Nokia Messaging ...

    Nokia Messaging doesn't delete / expunge with IMAPand PUSH EMAIL not working.. C6-00

    I had a bad experience with my gmail account. It was really slow. 15min looks to work but it won´t make it faster as push email is not supported by gmail when using nokia devices ( I have read it somewhere on a gmail mobile compatibility chart at google help pages)
    I have created an ovi mail account and it works as push email on my c6 00 (latest firmware). I have setup gmail to send a copy of all the incoming emails to my ovi account, so I have instant feedback at my phone of incoming mails.
    The bad news of this workaround is that when I reply i´m doing it from my ovi account where y erase the mails after reading as I have the original mail at gmail.
    I hope this helps someone that needs push+gmail.

  • SMS, push email,  wi-fi and 3G?

    SMS is working under iPhone OS 3.0 here in Japan now
    If messages are sent by phone number they only work in-carrier. But Softbank (the iPhone carrier in Japan) also provides a free @softbank.ne.jp email address for SMS that works between carriers and also between regular PC email. And SMS is included in the basic contract here.
    But... (is this the same in the U.S.?) SMS only works on 3G, not when wi-fi is on.
    So if you have wi-fi turned on your SMS messages simply don't arrive.
    The messages stay at the server though and when you are in 3G you can use an app that Softbank provides that lets you check your SMS messages.
    I did a test before by (1) turning off wi-fi and (2) sending myself an SMS message from my Mac. Sure enough it arrived, with a nice push notification.
    But when I turned wi-fi on and tried again nothing arrived. If I disable wi-fi and use the "check for new messages" app that Softbank provides they do arrive then.
    I work at home, and am on wi-fi almost all the time, so it is fairly useless as is.
    Is this the way SMS works in the U.S. too?
    Another related question - when the iPhone goes to sleep is there a time-out after which the wi-fi also goes to sleep? It seems I've received MMS messages before even when in my house.
    It's all sort of confusing to me.
    In the meantime, Yahoo push email works just fine whether on wi-fi or not. So it's hard to understand the purpose of MMS.

    I called Softbank and they said that's how it works. That's why they supply the separate app to download messages you missed while on wi-fi. In the U.S. does AT&T supply such a separate app to check for MMS messages that don't arrive when you are out of range?
    that is a very cool idea... they have written an app that gets to the mms server via the internet... very clever!
    In the U.S. are MMS messages sent to a phone number or to an ordinary-looking email address?
    most cell carriers offer a [email protected] and a [email protected] here in addition to the messages that get sent to the phone number... here the sms one is usually just your [email protected] and the MMS ones vary from carrier to carrier (you can pick your name on some carriers)
    Here you can use either. But if it is sent to the phone number it must be in-carrier between two cell phones. If sent to the email address it can be between carriers or even between cell phones and ordinary Internet email.
    the us has very good interconnection between carriers... so there is not a problem sending from a sprint cell phone to an att cell phone or verizon to sprint or tmobile to att... they usually can transfer the message with no issue

  • Question about future of push email & syncing with Mac and PC on iPhone

    I have two questions that I've tried to get answers from at two different Apple Stores, but I get many different answers - so I thought I'd give it a shot here.
    1) I understand that push email is coming in the 2.0 software release this summer - but will that only be for Microsoft Exchange customers? My small business uses DreamHost (a private mail server company) that runs postfix under Debian Linux and supports Courier IMAP...our IT guy told me this, I'm not sure what it all means - he's a PC guy...
    2) Can I sync my iPhone to my Entourage Mail & Contacts from my Mac AND sync my iTunes from my PC? Is this a bad idea?
    THANKS!

    What happens when you try to sign in with the new account on your phone?  Any error message?

  • Exchange 2010 and Mavericks Push Email Support

    Hi,
    I am new to OS X and Mac, but not Apple.  I've searcehd high and low and can't find an answer to this question though I suspect the answer is "no" based on what I've been able to decipher from what I've experienced and read.
    Should I expect push email capability with OSX Mavericks and Exchange 2010 using the Apple Mail application, or any other application for that matter?  It seems that the best I can do is fetch every one minute, but I am assuming that is not a very efficient method of checking mail, sepeciall on a corporate-sized email account.
    I have an iPhone and an iPad and both of those receive push emails without question.  I am suspect this is because they use Activesync and the Apple Mail application does not.
    Thank you,
    Paul McGarr

    I can confirm. I was able to add a corporate Exchange account to the OS X accounts handler before Mavericks and I assumed it was being pushed to mail.app since the account would show mail, contacts, calendar and tasks sync in the accounts handler. However, I always suspected there was problem with real "pushing" of email.
    My work Exchange account email would arrive approx 1 - 5 minutes slower to mail.app than any other service. Email, calendar, contacts,tasks push was near instantaneous to Outlook 2011 on the same MacBook Pro, a PC with Outlook 2010, an iPad and an Android phone.
    I believe the mobile devices defaulted to the Active Exchange Sync protocol on the server. I know that OS X doesn't support this but iOS does, so we can rule them out of the equation. You can see this when you add an Outlook.com account to an iOS device. It will push mail, contacts, calendars and tasks in real time if you send yourself a test email. OS X will only fetch mail and notes in the settings options.
    I'm guessing there was always a problem with OS X using any Microsoft protocol to retrieve mail but it is FAR more obvious now. I bet Apple set standard corporate Exchange accounts to fetch and it never truly pushed anything. Of course the AES protocol has never been supported by OS X otherwise it would use it!
    I can't receive Exchange email at all in Mavericks mail.app unless I manually press the check mail button now. Don't forget the server auto discover problems when on the work LAN vs at home.
    I use Windows 7, OS X, Android and iOS devices frequently. I've been looking to commit to a single unified OS/application ecosystem. THE FIRST REQUIREMENT IS THAT THE SYSTEM SUPPORTS MY WORK EXCHANGE PUSH SYNC. I have multiple other accounts like outlook.com, yahoo.com, aol, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. I find OS X is the most intuitive with the account handling baked into the OS. I cannot make the commitment to commit to the Apple ecosystem when the default account handler doesn't support Exchange push.
