Hi guys, I just bought my iPhone this afternoon and just wondering how can I push my yahoo e-mails to my iPhone? I've been trying to do it but it won't push right away.
Thanks

Hola spartavs,
FYI, the push feature of Yahoo has not been working as I would have expected. Sometimes it works very well and it pushes messages within seconds of the messagen having been sent. Other times it takes days for the messages to arrive! I hope that this will work better soon. I would really like for the .Mac email to have the 'push' feature!

Good luck

This is true.. it's very delayed.

I tried it through July and also had sporadic experience. I was using the "push" on the iPhone and POP on my Mac. I'm not sure if using both simultaneously had anything to do with issues. A compromise I found was to use AOL. It's free, it's IMAP (so the iPhone, your computer, and webmail stay in sync), and (unlike .Mac) you can assign your own domain to AOL and use that (remarkably still for free). If you use the webmail, you get the little AOL Free Mail ad line at the bottom of emails you send, but you don't get that from Mail.app, the iPhone, or from any source if using your own domain.

Push sounded great . . . . especially when you have to use your email for receiving MMS, but the AOL IMAP with 15 min checking has been working fine for me for about a month now.

Yahoo! push mail is very inconsistent; I hope it improves too. To make sure you get the most recent messages its an easy push of the refresh button, though.

How do you set the settings for the yahoo mail push or AOL or Gmail on the iPhone?

Push is automatic (when it works) with Yahoo. Not sure about the others.

You need to setup the yahoo account on your iPhone by going through the mail settings.

Once you set it up, it will automatically set to IMAP, instead of SMTP protocol. As for other emails, you will have to set it up as SMTP (since others do not offer IMAP, generally speaking) and set the frequency of checking the email accounts.

There seems to be inconsistency in Yahoo but most of the time, it comes as expected.

If you already have a yahoo account via AT&T/DSL service, still use yahoo selection to create the mail box for your iPhone (just use "username@sbcglobal.net"@yahoo.com, for an example).

Sorry, I meant POP, not SMTP. SMTP is for outgoing mail...
