Push Email Notifications from iCloud

[nk416]

Is it just me, or does @me.com iCloud email addresses only send push email notifications when it feels like it (say, 50% of the time at best)?

This thing has been totally unreliable. I can't count how many times I open the mail app and it starts downloading new messages from hours ago.

I'm having similar issues. Not sure if it's related to poor reception at this location.

There's big discussion about this on apple's support forums. I was having the issue too on my iPhone 4s but not on my iPad. My wife's 3GS seems to be working just fine. There are a bunch of different tricks people have tried on that thread. Give some of those a try and see if any work. Mine is working again but not sure how long it will last. Seems its pretty sporadic when it works and doesn't work.

Yeah, my 4S is not getting push mail notifications and it's pretty annoying. Could you give a link to the thread you're referring to?
