Hey,
Erm, you say that SMS is free, or at-least receiving them is. Maybe if
you could implement such an application, you could get your server to
SMS your phone when you have important messages with a special trigger
code, and then you're phone would connect and download the messages?
Not sure if this is possible, or if it would be cheaper / waste of
time... But if you were going with text messages, it'd be expensive to
fit anything more than a small message on?
Or just the old fashioned way of the server sending you a text alert
for you to read, to say that you need to go download then, because
there is (x) new messages.
Thanks,
Samuel Melrose

Yeah, thats what I was hoping to avoid :-)
I was thinking of looking at the cost savings of implementing a mail
push system versus imap idle. The server would push important mails,
but otherwise my client wouldn't check unless I asked it too.
Obviously the break even point depends on how many messages you get an
hour.
Though around here incoming SMS are free, so I could push that way...
