I'm an Android not an iOS user, so maybe I don't get the significance of push notifications. Isn't this simply the kind of annoying notification that productivity experts tell us to turn off? I certainly have configured all devices (phone, tablets, pc) to not ding or give notification when new mail arrives.

In theory this should improve battery life. Instead of waking up the CPU/radios to ask whether there's new mail every few minutes, the phone lets the server push the mail to it.
