So, I use att.net email. Yahoo based, pushes on phone, used to push on Slow Leopard. Since using 10.7GM it doesn't. I dont recall if it did or not on Beta 4 cause I didn't use it more than a day before GM was released. Anyone else have an issue with Mail pushing??
 
So out of 121 views, nobody uses email?

Guess I wasn't specific, not att.net specifically, mail in general. Email pushes fine to phone, so I'm pretty sure is the Lion Mail app....
 
Are you sure you have it setup to use the IMAP server in Mail.app?

PUSH (IDLE) has been working fine for me with MobileMe and Gmail.

The mail app is only Exchange based, POP or IMAP.
 
I don't recall ever seeing the word Push in Mail. Why not just use IMAP and leave Mail app open in the background, it will check for mail once every minute?

When I click to get new mail it works. Just doesn't check automatically like it used to. Sorry if "push" was misleading but it doesn't even "fetch" every 5 minutes like I have it set to do
