Are the imap servers at rollernet "push" comparable? I'm guessing the is a server side thing.

Thanks Darren

Push is a Microsoft Exchange thing; IMAP and POP3 don't have anything like that in the spec.

One exception: IMAP IDLE, if the device supports it. We do support that server side.

Thanks for the update. Just researched further and it seems Push-IMAP may be the way forward if adopted:
