I have Gmail set up using IMAP and my settings are to update automatically using any connection every 10 minutes (for testing purposes). I checked back 20 minutes later and the last refresh date was still the previous time I checked my mail. People keep saying the email app sucks but I assume it would do basic things like this?

I use nokia messaging (far lower battery drain, instant push email) for gmail and another imap email account - works far better then polling. Try that and see how you like it.

Beta version of what? IMAP? Maemo? I don't see anything regarding something being beta anywhere on these forums or the phone.

At one point it seemed to work fine for me, too. I looked at the last refresh date and it would be at the top of the hour (when I had my interval set at 1 hour). But it seems like it stops and I never know if it's working or not. Like right now for instance.

I just did a few tests to see if I could figure out why it worked sometimes but not others... Here are the results

2G: Gmail did NOT update automatically
3G: Gmail did NOT update automatically
Wifi: Gmail DID update automatically

All I did was switch between the connections. My settings are to update automatically on ANY connection. Think this is a bug or just me?
