WIFI & Pushmail - I searched and found non conclusive an

[mobiler]

I've set up mail2web account and configured activesync on my mobile with mail2web settings for push mail.

I've been unable to get any mail "Pushed" to my device that way when I'm connect with WIFI. I have to go to acivesync on mobile and click on "Sync" and only then do the emails get downloaded to the device.

I've been searching through the archive and I actually found people saying you cannot use Wifi with pushmail. But also found replies of some claim they are getting their mail pushed while being connected only with Wifi and not GPRS.

Keep in mind at this time my device doesn't have GPRS so I have no other choice but to use Wifi. More so, it would seem very idiotic to program pushmail to specifically not work through Wifi. After all why not? Wifi is a lot faster, and if you're at the office or an hotspot somewhere it would seem much more logical to get the mail with Wifi than with slow GPRS. but I wouldn't be surprised if MS didn't think about that.

push mail won't work with WIFI

use cellular line and it works straight away

Or use Blackberry or Goodlink or any other push e-mail solution.

You can also move to the Nokia implementation using ActiveSync for push-email on the E61 and that will work with WiFi :twisted:

I think push email does work on Wifi.

The only thing is that my GPRS connection pops up automaticly. But when I want to send a large email, i need to disconnect GPRS several times in order to send it over Wifi

This irritated me as well, but I've found that if you modify the ActiveSync schedule to sync every 5 minutes instead of "as items arrive" you can connect to Exchange servers over WiFi.

You won't get true push email, but it's still better than nothing :)

check out the mobile team blog. Push on activesync is hardcoded to use cellular only. nothing you can do will get it to work on wifi.
