When Sparrow came out people complained that it couldn't send new mail notifications. Now Mailbox does the only thing you can do to get that kind of control and people complain that their servers could go down. People want bear patrol, but they don't want to pay taxes for it.
- cmicali 14y agoThis is the reason. With iOS, this is the only way to get pushed new mail notifications. The rest could be done without a server, but that was sparrows #1 complaint (and for me and many others a requirement) +1 for bear patrol!
- untog 14y agoBut the only reason you have to pay taxes is because Apple makes you. It amazes me the lengths people go to in order to work around Apple's limitations. Multiple servers, waiting lists... it just seems insane.
