Hello Moto Q Forums

This is supposed to be a push email solution offered by telus... on average my email takes 10 or more minutes to be recieved, the fastest being 7 minutes... this seems much more like an automated send/recieve.

In my mind push should be instant... 2 minutes or less is what i would like to see for arival times, 5 minutes would even be better.

Perhaps my expectations don't match reality. What should I be expecting?


P.S. I'm now tring Emoze after browsing and searching this forum. I'll post my results.

There is a delay. 7-15 minutes or so. So it is not 'instant' but it sure beats having to connect all the time to find out you have no messages and wasting your data.

[cjramsey]

the reason there is a delay when using emoze is because you have a setting in microsoft outlook that tells it when to automatically do send/receives

i believe it is set to 15 minutes by default

mando - are you saying that each time I do a send/recieve I use up some of my alloted data allocation even though I don't receive any e-mails ??

I currently have mine set for Every 15 mins, thinking that I have nothing to lose (except that I believe this drains your battery).

Can someone explain this to me. Thx.

You send data to the server in the form of a question and it sends data back in the form of an answer.

Anyone have any idea of how many bytes each request/response takes ??

it doesn't take up a lot of data but it does add up over time...especially if you are only on the 4MB package. I would say maybe 10kb everytime you check. Not much but depending on how often you do it.
