This concerns using a mobileme account for the mail app that comes with every mac. Prior to 10.5.6, mail doesn't really get pushed to me, there is some delay, I can live with that. However, with 10.5.6, a strange thing happens. When I turn mail on and send a message to my mobileme immediately, it gets pushed. However, after waiting a few hours, even clicking "Get Mail" has problems (yes I have checked the bit where it says include when checking for new mail). I can only right click on the MobileMe Inbox and synchronize it, then the new message comes in, and from then, I get push, and after a few hours, the same thing happens.

In short, when mail is idle, I can't recieve mail (not even by fetch)

Btw, my gmail fetches perfectly, no push, but when I fetch it even when its idle, it works.

Help? Thanks
