Does iOS support IMAP IDLE on the iPhone?

If not, when is it going to be implemented? I have iOS 5 on my iPhone 4 at present, and I only have the option of setting my IMAP accounts to Fetch on 15 minutes intervals.
Implementing IMAP would be rather trivial for Apple and a god send to those of us who have many IMAP accounts.

Sorry for bumping this old thread out.... but its iOS 8 is comming.
First of all
> It's the, you know, constant and persistent part. I.e. the fact that the connection is kept alive all the time.
This is BS. RFC suppose to use idle notify as 29mins, so it is going to wake up phone every 29mins, or every email arrives. So in case if you set your mail app to poll mail every 15 mins and you haven't any mail received in that period, your poll was useless, I mean your performance already has lost to imap idle. By the way, you think apple's push work differs from sending alive msgs or actual data to openned socket?...
Sorry, that was to clear things
Does anyone know if finally apple decided to add imap idle support to ios8??

    Perhaps not, but the more people that request it the better the chances.
    It only takes a few minutes to submit one yourself.

  • I bought an iphone 5 in December. However my iPhone does not support 1700 HSPA . The current iphone 5 does. Is there any way I can trade my iPhone to get the current iPhone since they are both iphone 5?

    No, you have to sell yours and buy the new iPhone 5 with the proceeds.
    Please do not double post. Asking many times does not change the answer.

  • Apple Mail doesn't support IMAP IDLE

    I had started using Entourage for a while just for testing since I had reacently started using a new IMAP server and I wanted to see how all the different email software behaves differently so that I can know what everyone will expect to see. Probably my favorite feature of the IMAP4rev1 protocol is IDLE. This feature gives the client the ability to stay connected to server so that the second an email comes in, it is "pushed" to the client.
    This is very different from the way that with POP3 and HTTPmail that you need to poll the server. Here's the real bummer for me though, my absolute favorite email client, Apple Mail, DOESN'T SUPPORT 'IMAP IDLE'!!!!!!!
    I beg you Apple to please realease a new version of Apple Mail that supports IDLE properly so that the client can stay connected to the IMAP server.
    Other not as important feature requests/bugs that I have:
    * CRAM-MD5 authentication on SMTP doesn't work for me in Apple Mail even though my server supports it and it works fine in other email clients
    * A three pane vertical view similar to Entourage/Outlook... It would just be a nice option
    * Ability to hide individual IMAP folders aka Unsubscribe
    * AND ONCE AGAIN PLEASE SUPPORT IDLE!!!
    Now if I have this all wrong and there is some way to turn IDLE on that is a hidden setting, someone please tell me. I'd be interested in hearing what someone from Apple has to say about this missing feature. Thank you!

    No, all this does is download all of my emails and cache all of them locally (regardless of what folder they are in). I wouldn't want this to happen because I definitely have over 100MB stored on my email server.
    IDLE is something entirely different... I'm still hoping to get a reply from Apple.
    If anybody else is annoyed with this please file a feature/bug request/submit form at www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/ so that we can try to get this resolved soon via some sort of update. OS X 10.5 is still a ways away so I'd definitely like to see an update to 2.05 before we get to 3.0.

  • Does iOS support syncing contact photos using Bluetooth PBAP?

    I know iOS supports PBAP.
    I know the PBAP protocol supports syncing pictures (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg28488.html)
    Does iOS supports this too?

    No one would have any idea what Apple plans, unless they announse - which is very rare.
    Iphone does not support bluetooth printing.

  • If you block a phone number in iMessage on the iPad, does it also block it on the iPhone?

    If you block a phone number in iMessage on the iPad, does it also block it on the iPhone?

    Depends on whether you are using the same iCloud account on the device, or if you are syncing Contacts via iTunes, if you are syncing both devices to the same computer.
    When you block someone, no matter which application you "launch" the block from (Messages, Phone, FaceTime) you are blocking the Contact. So, any app that uses that contact will see it as a blocked contact and will block any incoming activity to that app from that contact.

  • HT4528 IOS 7.1.2 for the iPhone 4S.

    Apple should re-sign the IOS 7.1.2 for the iPhone 4S.
    IOS 8 (even 8.0.2) was a step too far for the 4S.
    Does anyone think Apple are listening, and that a re-sign is likely

    I spoke too soon. I tried Facetime again last night and had the same problems. Another factory reset did not work. I think it may be time to just call Apple support.

  • Is the battery life back to normal on iOS 6.1.3 with the iPhone 5?

    Hello all, was just wondering what with the new update iOS 6.1.3 for the iPhone 5, is the battery life back to normal? I am still on iOS 6.0.1 because after all the bad things about battery life i heard with 6.1 and subsequent upgrades i just decided to stay on 6.0.1. I am really nervous to upgrade to 6.1.3. Is the battery life fixed?
    Thanks

    Thanks everyone... I think i will upgrade and see how it goes, i cant stay on one OS forever... I too, on my 4S before i got the 5, had 5.0, then 5.1, 5.1.1, 6.0, and so on til i got the 5, which came with 6.0.1, i just stayed there... I have never had battery issues with any of my iPhones. If i do, i have the warranty so i will go to apple store and they will fix it.
