Blackberry like Push Email??

[Humminnboatin]

Hello New user here. I just got the EVO 4G on 6/4 and really do enjoy it. I made the switch from Blackberry Curve.

I am trying to figure out if there is a way to make the email accounts on my Evo all be Push accounts like I had on my Blackberry. I have a gmail acct and 2 others. Any help would be greatly appreiciated.

Thanks,
Eric

What are the others? Exchange, IMAP, or POP3?

Both pop accounts

Well then you have two options. you can use the built in HTC program to configure and retrieve those accounts, or you can set the accounts to automatically forward to your gmail.
To set up the E-Mail program HTC bundles follow these instructions taken from the HTC website:
"From the All Programs screen, tap Mail. If this is the first email account, follow the on-screen prompts to set up the desired type of email. If this is not the first email account, tap Menu > More > New account and follow the on-screen prompts. "

Good Luck!

Yeah I set that up to ping the server every 30 mins M-F 8-8 on my business acct. In my business timing is every thing. and really 30mins is too slow. (can you tell i miss my blackberry) But going any faster than that will surley kill my batter and render my phone completley usless. I have my personal account running to ping every 4 hours.

And If I remember correctly gmail account is push?

Try out K9, or Touchdown that I link to on THIS page, they generally provide the features you are looking for. Yes, GMail is push on all android devices
