Subject: [Imap-protocol] Fwd: iOS IMAP IDLE (Standard "Push Email")
	Deficiency, Explanation?
Message-ID: <352410DE-19D8-4EE4-8741-AB82741D7A18@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com>

Maybe my hubris got the better of me, but I didn't bargain for a complete surprise.  Well, anyway, we know now why Apple does not implement IMAP IDLE in iOS.  I've clearly been spending too much time around the IETF, to find Mr. Job's explanation to be completely incomprehensible. :-)

(Please let me know if the Message/RFC822 part didn't come through right - thanks.)

I want to ask anybody who feels strongly to the contrary to please not attack the sender (and the messenger either if you can help it :-) ).  I guess I'm stuck waiting 15 minutes for new mail notifications, and running my battery down.  I'm not forwarding my mail anywhere or running Exchange (or a clone).  The latter, in particular, is a power-hungry option ...

Cheers,
Sabahattin
