Email is pull already, every email client can be configured to only pull manually. I never had blinking icons or anything and never understood the supposedly big problem with email communication. On the contrary I like it because it is a asynchronous way of communicating. I answer emails when I have the time to do so, not when someone calls and takes my attention.
- unsignedint 12y agoI've moved to more of "pull" approach recently, and it seems to work pretty well too. (I used to use on Gmail interface, but now I'm mostly on Gnus -- whenever I have moment to check my E-mail, I simply hit 'g' key to check to see anything new.) I still have notifications sent to my phone (which also comes to my Android Wear watch) but since I've configured the notification to let me know messages meeting certain criteria, it's much better than "push" driven E-mails.
