What about the Email-Push-Service. I don't know if this is provider
specific. T-Mobile Germany offers this service for about 5 €/month with
free transfer. I don't know how it works, but the name makes me think,
the provider "pushes" the mail to the phone.
Any ideas?
Greetings Bastian

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?
Yes, I was thinking I'd put a filter on my imap server which would
send an SMS when messages come in. When the phone receives the SMS it
would check for new mail. It had crossed my mind to stuff message
headers into the sms too. Then you could decide if its worth
downloading the full message over gprs.
I just have a bunch of ideas in my head, though it does look like I
might have to make a imap client first as I don't see on yet :-)
