Push email onscreen alerts.

Hi folks,

I set up my gmail account to push with the instructions that Google provided. Mail is pushing properly to my phone. I get an audible notification and vibrate when a new message comes in, also the mail icon badge get properly updated.

However, i don't get an onscreen alert. Does anyone know how i can correct this?

iPhone 3GS, iPhone OS 3.0.1

Mail does not provide a separate onscreen text alert.

"Notifications differ depending upon the application, but may include text or sound alerts, and a numbered badge on the application’s icon on the Home screen." http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/#settings.notifications

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the info. Seems like an obvious feature to me, but i suppose there's a reason it's not there.

Back to Gpush for me.
