Guest Marcuzzo Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 I read that the IMAP feature in Gmail supports the new "IMAP Idle", that is for realtime push email, similar to the DirectPush offered by Exchange. I tried to configure my Google account on my WM6 phone but I can only set a time interval (ex 5 minutes) for send/receive. I don't see a "realtime" option. Where is it?

I believe the wording is "as they arrive". Unsure if Pocket outlook supports this without additional software. But exchange accounts can be found for free. Such as Seven, or Mail2web.

Guest WearTheFoxHat Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Correct ... Pocket Outlook does not support the "IMAP Push" protocol. Flexmail does. Exchange instant sync does work though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcuzzo, which service did you set up for the direct push on mail2web? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BawBagg Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 That will be mail2web live - which is free, but with the restriction that any outgoing mail from your handset goes from a @mail2web.com email address. I upgraded this by paying $4.95 a month for Personal Exchange which means I can configure outgoing mail from my handset to be from my own email address. It works like a dream.

I upgraded this by paying $4.95 a month for Personal Exchange which means I can configure outgoing mail from my handset to be from my own email address. It works like a dream. I confirm all this, adding that perhaps the free Mail2web Live adds advertising in outgoing messages but I don't matter since I use it only one-way for receiving alerts from my PC.
