Windows Live Push Email - Get it work with Gmail?

Helllllo.

So I've tried out using Windows Live Email Push on 6.5 and it works REALLY WELL. Probably the best push email I've used, though SEVEN is up there. I currently forward Gmail email to WinLive, and Live pushes it to my PPC. However, it syncs well with the Live account, but I want the changes to reflect on my Gmail as well. Is there any I can IMAP Gmail/Live, or is there an app someone could write that everytime an Email gets pushed to Live, it initiates a Send/Recieve with a seperate Gmail account under PocketOutLook?

Thanks.

I use a PHP app called Z-push that acts as an activesync wrapper for IMAP. Works great for me running locally on my mail server, but YMMV running it on a separate server (as you would be doing).

Thanks, I looked into that, I don't think that would suit what I want to do too well.

What about a local app like Flexmail, which is what I use... works great with Gmail's IMAP IDLE protocol... messages come in seconds...

I'd like to learn a little bit more about this if you don't mind. Could Z-push be used to push Gmail (it does imap) if I run it on my home server?
