I used to use that on my moto q... worked fairly well but was really unstable on the phone. Lots of screen updating issues. That was about a year ago though, I'm sure things have improved since then.

The only limitation I see is that your reply address will come from your one push email address, not the one(s) that receives the original inbound mail.

As for Google's Sync Gmail. Luv the concept but still buggy with all the inconsistent push & battery suckage.
Hotmail seems to have a good handle on it on my TP2 though.

what are you saying here? that google sync uses more battery then a hotmail sync? im about to use gmail push and wanted to know if this would effect battery.

How about poll every 3 minutes?

How do I make my TP2 do what I could do with Blackberry's BIS service? I want to be able to push several email accounts to my device like I could with my 'berry. So far, it's looking like my only option is to enter the pop info in and just schedule send/receive in Pocket Outlook. Are you serious? I'm back to having to poll a server? I need instant gratification and it looks like all a hosted exchange account does is let me aggregate, but I can't change which account I reply from on the fly. Help me Obi Wan!!

What I do personally is use Seven for my email pushing. I Notice no battery draining at all and I have 3 gmail, 1 school and 1 live account pushed 24/7. Its instant for me as I usually get the mail on my phone before my computer. I also haven't had any issues with attachments.

Best part being that it is free!

you can use one account for push mail. if you need more then one account for push you can use seven like imsavant said. depending on what phone/os you have depends on where the activesync program is. just open that and enter your email info. some email accounts dont have push mail. hotmail does, now gmail does. i do not know any others as thats all i use.
