Is this what S60 devices already have? On my old phone I can leave the IMAP malibox connected and will receive any emails as soon as they arrive. If that is what your talking about then I seroiously hope so because I havnt beenable to get a reliable mailbx connection so faron the N900.
What is you current email running like on the N900? What problem do you have with the current set up.

right now imap idle is disabled.
Yes basically it is a push email implementation by imap. Google supports it in Google Apps and Gmail. It is a simple way to have a push email notification

We don't have it already? 
That's about the most important IMAP feature on a resource limited device, and should be implemented by all decent mobile e-mails clients (I'm looking at you too, Pocket Outlook). Scheduled syncs (every x minutes) waste battery life, and manual syncs mean you don't know when you get new mail - I gave both up and hacked together a SMS push system to force manual syncs when the mailbox changes on my Touch Pro, but it's still ugly. I was really hoping to get away from something like that.

IMAP was poorly implemented on the N810. It chokes on large mailboxes. You still have to use claws to get decent IMAP support on OS2008. If Nokia still hasn't gotten it right with the N900 I don't hold out much hope for you guys. Hope I am wrong.
