Only receiving e-mails on my iPhone once in awhile

Could anyone help me? I'm currently receiving e-mails on my iPhone once in a while. I can send them though with no problem. My provider is through Comcast. Any help would be great!

Do you have the iPhone set to check mail automatically?

SETTINGS/MAIL - Messages - Auto check

Are you in range of EDGE at all times?

Yes on both. I assume the settings are right, but I still just get an e-mail once in awhile on my iPhone.

I would highly recommend a Gmail account. Free, tons of storage and very reliable....not to mention some of the best spam filtering you will find.

Trick is to always have a "trash" email address that you use for forms and whatnot and those people that like to fwd you and send fwds with you on the list.

Then have one or two main emails that you use on your phone.

You will have to turn off recent mode right now to not get send mail notifications with Gmail.

I cannot wait til' mail is done right on the iPhone as I am used to a Blackberry.
