The problem i get is that i always have to do a manual sync, no matter what sync setting i set it to, whether i leave it on 5min,10min, etc.. It never comes in as "push" until i sync it myself..Once it came in but that was about a min after i did a manual sync

Im using ver. 10.6.33.0600

Why not just use a Gmail account? MSN Live sucks. I might just be a little upset because after cancelling my Bell Sympatico account my email was deleted immediately. Jerks. But still, Gmail is amazingly easy to setup and it works great.

I finally got Gmail to push through Sprint mail yesterday. I setup Gmail IMAP manually. There is about a five minute delay on push, but that is alot better then having to pull every 5 minutes.

because Windows Mobile doesn't support push for Gmail out the box... you'll need something like Emoze or that other thing everyone else uses.

my Push is instant. Trust me, I tested it numerous times by sending emails from another address.

Is there anyway to do this with a yahoo mail account?

If you want good push grab a mail2web account. Its free, and is a real exchange server. syncs your contacts, tasks, calendar and notes. Then fwd your current acct to mail2web and everything gets pushed. They even generate a cab installer for your server config so you can 1 click install the settings. Best free service for road warriors I've found yet.

you either get a hotmail account and forward your yahoo to the hotmail or get mail2web.
