There's an IMAP feature called IDLE which enables detection of incoming

however, BB do not use imap natively, all email is routed via the BB app
server ( which does the content get and content push ). The Push to
device is dependant on the signal type being used by the cell provider (
which is why you cant use backberry services, unless activated by the
provider ).
That is my understanding on how things worked till about a year or so
back, there have been quite a few updates from RIM in the mean time, so
its possible they have a generic imap app on there too. But I thought it
might be worth investigating.
