Aqua Mail allows for advanced customization of Push mail. There are three configuration options:

  1. For the entire app
  2. For a specific account
  3. For a specific folder or folders

Given the app’s default settings, usually only option 2. is necessary to enable push mail for an account.

  1. For the entire app: This is enabled by default. It is accessible via Settings -> Mail, receiving.
  2. For an account: This is disabled by default. You can change it via Settings > Manage accounts > Select your account > Options > Account options > Push mail.
  3. For a folder or multiple folders: This is enabled by default for the main Inbox folder, but is disabled for other folders. You can change it via Settings > Manage accounts > Select your account > Folders. Find the required folder, tap the name and set it “to sync”, then tap the gear icon for the same folder (settings) on the right to enable Push mail.
