PushEffect Push Email Messaging Add-On for Gmail, Yahoo, ISP, POP3, IMAP for SP & PPC

[Guest wannaQ]

Great new application just released for WM5 SmartPhones and PPC called PushEffect. I downloaded a 7 day trial, installed it on my Moto Q, now I've got push mail from Gmail! and it really works well.

This thing is an add-on for Messaging. It sits running in the background and "monitors" all your email accounts in Messaging. You have to set up a "hidden" SMS which gets forwarded to your phone from the mail server.

When PushEffect "sees" this hidden SMS from the server, it has Messaging download the message. It does this in the background, and it's quick! It was faster than my hosted Exchange account!

My guess is that it will work with any mail server which can forward a new message as an SMS to your phone. Should work with most WM5 SmartPhones or PPC's.

It adds a whole slew of other features (the auto send and pop up notifications were awesome!), I copied this from the company's web site www.qorefunctions.com (I guess it's pronounced "corefunctions"?):
