I have not battery issues with FlexMail at all. I am using FM 4.0 which uses IMAP idle to check email. I get instant notifications when I get email, even before Outlook. It uses very little power because it does not send or receive data unless it needs to. If you are still using POP3 for some reason... you should really consider changing to the MUCH better IMAP protocol.

Of course, you can tell FM to check your email every 15 minutes if that makes you happy and it does support POP3.

I really like the fact that it acts like a real email client. So for instance if I respond to a message the responded to flag is set on the message so in outlook on the desktop I can see I have already responded.
