Yesterday has been released very useful iPhone’s utility called iMapIdle. The main feature of this amazing utility is push-email support on your Apple iPhone. Probably, in Russia almost noone knows - What is push-email?, its because push-email is widely distributed only in USA.

All began from BlackBerry which have had embedded opportunity to receive push-mail. So what is push-mail? As we know, there are two ways to receive email from the server. The first and the simplest method is called “pull″. Using this method work almost all email clients on desktops, in this case email is updated compulsorily or using some schedule. Using push-email, all your emails are received in your post client or iPhone instantly after this email has been received by the server. Certainly, from only technical point of view there is no difference between these two methods: if you manage your pull-program to check email on the server every 1 second - here it is push-mail in action.

So if you still want iMapIdle, download it from HERE and install.

The brief description:

- This utility works in silent mode and waits until a new email message will appear on your IMAP account;
- After that it informs about new email through pop-up window or using a sound (it is possible to choose manually a sound file);
- This pop-up window allows you to check your inbox right now (IMPORTANT! Do not choose &laquoCheck Inbox Now&raquo, when you are in Mail). The pop-up window will disappear in 20 seconds. If you miss it, the number of received email messages will be displayed on iMapIdle icon
- The utility supports SSL connections specially for GMail IMAP.

Installation:

- unzip iMapIdle.zip
- scp -r iMapIdle.app root@{iphone_ip}:/Applications
- restart springboard (ie: reboot phone or use customize to restart SpringBoard for you)
- should see a new iMapIdle icon. Click to setup iMapIdle options and to activate. Click home button to exit gui and iMapIdle should be running in background.
