Can someone explain how to get push email to work? Mine will only fetch on a set interval, 15 minutes is the shortest option. Is it because I’m using a Gmail address?
See edits: Push is present and totally works; enabling it is just very different from K-9
On K-9 Mail, it’s in Settings -> {Account} -> Fetching Mail -> Push Folders
On Thunderbird Beta, the “Push Folders” option should be in the same place, but it is totally missing for me.
Edit: If you go into Manage Folders and then Inbox (or any folder I guess), there is an “Enable Push” option. I enabled that, but it doesn’t seem to do anything.
Edit 2: Ok, the folder-level enable push seems to work now. I had to grant the Alarms and Reminders permission before it could run in the background. It didn’t automatically get or prompt for that, but granting that in app settings fixed it
