Again, I think the absence of new email notifications for messages in subfolders is a much, much, much bigger issue than anything people are complaining about right now. As much as I want Flash, I can "somewhat" understand the issues that might be causing the delay but with the whole subfolder thing there's just no excuse.
Wrong. You CAN be notified when mail is pushed to a subfolder on the iPhone. To enable this:
tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data > Advanced > [select the account that is Push enabled]
In that window you should see an option to select the folders to push new email to, the default is for the Inbox ONLY.
"Matt" said something about blaming the IT guys for not knowing that pre-3Gs the iPhone didn't support Exchange encryption, fine. But why didn't Apple make it known or mention this themselves beforehand? As an "IT guy" I'm forced to deal with a fleet of 3G users in the field that can't access their e-mail in real time because that's the phone the CEO demanded despite my assertion that it's not the best choice.
Business as usual for Apple just may cost me my job.
