Re: Looking for simple email solution
I believe that "Push e-mail" means that as soon as the e-mail is received by your e-mail account, the e-mail is automatically "pushed" to the phone.. "Pull e-mail" is when the e-mail app on your phone pings the e-mail account you have to see if it has any new e-mails.. That is why when you set up your e-mail account in WM, you can select different time intervals for it to "ping" the e-mail account.. Obviously, if there is a new e-mail, it "pulls" it onto the phone... I hope that cleared it up...

I believe Gmail, Yahoo, AOL are all pull e-mail while exchange is push e-mail.. Blackberry e-mail is also push...

If there are any settings to set up this selected screening of incoming email, I would believe they are in your e-mail account, not on the phone itself...
