hope this helps....if so hit the thanks
But for now, I've tested this app, and I don't know if it works on TELUS. After soft-reset and registering the device and email account, it stayed open in the face so I "x"ed it and confirmed it's not running by looking into the task manager.

Then, sent an email from my other hotmail account to my msn account registered on the device. 5 mins go by, and no sign of new email. Meanwhile, I see on my msn account on browser that the email has been received.

So, I soft reset and wait for it to do everything by itself. And I still don't see anything happening.
PS: I also have Google Mobile Sync running via ActiveSync to sync my calendar events.

Upon going directly to Messaging and hitting Send/Receive, it seemed to have gotten that email as new, but still no pushing done by Sprint Email.

Looks like you're on Sprint, in the US. I'm on TELUS, in Canada.

I'd kill to have an app like that. Because I'm big on push that keeps a data connection and a client active. It's push, but at the cost of battery and RAM.

Sprint Mail is made by Seven. It has more limitations than the current Seven beta, so you're better off using Seven beta.

I wish Seven releases another version with the encrypted text messages method.

Re: Why not use push email?
 
I installed a Gmail account on my Touch Pro, but could not get it to work well. IMAP kept locking up my phone, and POP wanted to download all thousands of messages in my Gmail account.

My conclusion was that Gmail has a bizarre model of email (everything is archived, never deleted) which is incompatible with POP; and Windows Mobile does not support IMAP well.

If you don't mind an additional application, you might try Flexmail.
