i have sync on for my gmail account. tried sending an email from my laptop to my gmail account and it does not auto refresh.

if i go to settings, data sync, uncheck then check gmail... then i get my new messages. isnt it supposed to push it to my phone automatically?

any ideas?

***EDIT
a restart did the trick. any ideas how to get push consistently?

***EDIT 2
not working again

Same thing here. Its so unreliable that I have now disabled autosync to save battery. Hopefully when 2.1 is rolled out it will get fixed.

I got a Desire 2 weeks ago. Set up hotmail and Yahoo, both seemed to push ok with the envelope i the top corner and vibrate. For the last 4 days though, this has stopped working. No push, envelope or vibration. I have to go into the app and then it refreshes automatically. This is well pants!!

At first I thought it may be conflicting software so i uninstalled them and the reinstalled, still same issue. I think it may need a factory reset which is bang out of order.

Gonna search online more for a less gruesome fix

just an update... 2.1 kinda fixed it for me. but i dont really know if it was spotty data by my carrier for the week i had 1.5.
