So far this morning all icloud emails are coming in instantly so Push seems to be working.

Out of curiosity is this now working somewhat consistently for everyone?

Yes. As thread starter, I consider what Apple's engineers did (provisioning?) did the trick.

I did send 2,000 emails to Tim Cook on Wednesday the 2nd and by the 3rd it was fixed lol

Code:
To whom it may concern,

I am one of billions of iCloud users who rely on my emails for my daily interactions. Starting on October 7th 2016 my emails have stopped working correctly. The problem is that mail is being delivered, but it is not being pushed to our devices.

I have an iPhone 6S+ running iOS 9.3.5, but don't let that confuse you - this is NOT a device specific problem. Below is a thread which at the time of writing this email contains 20 pages of people who have submitted bug reports, feedback, direct calls with apple, senior support specialists calling them, and more... We all have different devices running completely different builds of iOS and we ALL have the same problems.

What does this mean? It is a problem with Apple servers or your CDN network. It doesn't take a team of engineers paid a siz figure salary to figure out the problem is not with our devices or with iOS. My mail was working perfectly fine up until that particular date and nothing changed on my end.

I apologize if this email sounds hostile, but myself and everyone in the forum thread has tried and exhausted all of our options and we are being played for fools with scripted and nonsense replies from supposed senior engineers and support specialists. We are all tired of being played and just want this issue to be resolved the way it should be.

Thanks, (name).

haha good work.

I haven't heard back from my senior advisor. Wondering if I should fire off an email letting him know it's working or should I leave him hanging.....

To be fair, if you truly sent that many, and especially same ones, it might be somewhat counterproductive as they would see them as more of a nuisance and potentially just even block the emails or just send them to junk.

Nicely done!
[doublepost=1478573780][/doublepost]Push appears to be working!

However, I'm using a blackberry android (dtek 60) now. It's my daily driver with iPhone as backup.

Apple just ain't reliable enough for work....especially with how they play us for stupid (scripted replies from advisors..."first I've heard of this" bullcrud...)

How are they gonna do healthcare requiring time critical data being pushed/sent/received!

Their engineering quality control and treatment of loyal customers is in the toilet! IMHO
