K-9 Mail doesn't use GCM/FCM or any other generic Push mechanism. IMAP IDLE works by opening a direct connection to the mail server and listening for changes "pushed" by the server. Power saving related changes in Android made it harder to write an IDLE-capable client. Those changes in Android were made to get users a better battery life. I'm sure the required changes to the app will make K-9 Mail better in the end. But for now it's work that needs to be done in order to get things to the same functional level as before. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "K-9 Mail" group.
