Well I "think" I kind of figured it out though not sure if can do anything.

IF you open "Mail" and hit the back button to back out of the screen that is actually ending the mail process thus no checking.

IF you open "Mail" and hit the home button when done instead, it keeps the process running and it all works fine.

I didn't have these issues when was on my original evo 3d with latest stock fw (non-rooted) but as a replacement phone I got a brand new in box one that had 1.3 boot so I updated to 1.4 and updated everything else, flashed yours and noticed this.

So must be something in the rom or kernal causeing the process/task to end on backup vs running in background. Kind of sucks because the mail task on mine uses about 34MB of ram to keep running but I know its really just some other smaller process that is all that needs to remain on.

Oh well, at least I figured out the work around for now so it checks, just hard to remember to not use back, haha.
