Problem with Push Notification from Lion Mailserver

Hello @all,


i have a problem with Push Notifications on Lion Server 10.7.5. I think the Problem exists since the iOS 6 Upgrade on my Mobile Devices (iPhone 5 and iPad 3). When i go to my Mail Push Settings i cannot set it to Push. The only thing i can do is Load and Manually. On the Calendar settings i can use the Push setting. The Mailserver and the Calendarserver run on the same Machine.


What i see on the Server is, that all connections to APNS are up and running:


frodo:~$ sudo lsof -P -i |grep -i APN

APNBridge 139 _jabber 5u IPv4 0xffffff800cf23de0 0t0 TCP *:8080 (LISTEN)

APNBridge 139 _jabber 9u IPv6 0xffffff800cf1b340 0t0 TCP *:8080 (LISTEN)

When i snoop on the connection to the Apple Push Server and i receive a Mail one TCP Paket will go out to the Servers. For me it looks really strange because i think that on the Server is everything fine. Today i rebootet the Server but the Problem exists. The Mobile Devices i have also rebootet many times. Can somebody help me or give me a Tip what i can do?


Thank you very much.

My setup (osx lion server + iPhone's, iPad with iOS 6.0 and iOS 6.0.1) works fine inclusive push. But since last week, I haven't make an upgrade on any device, all iOS devices are without mail push functions.


Since last week are more providers (aol...) without push function. Unfortunately I haven't iOS 4 or iOS 5 devices for testing.


I think there is no bug in iOS 6. Perhaps, use iOS 4 push server without geo- / ip- restrictions?


A statement from apple would be great.
