As for your other questions, using BIS, mail is pushed to your device every 15 minutes. If mail was found on your email servers, RIM checks again in 2-3 minutes. If mail is found again, it is pushed and RIM will recheck in 2-3 minutes again, until no mail is found, at which time it reverts to the 15 minute cycle.
According to your profile, you are on Sprint which is a CDMA carrier. CDMA does not have simultaneous voice and data like GSM so if you are on a call, you can't receive data (email) until you end the call.

I have found that if I am on a phone call and end the call I need to manually reconcile to see if an email came in while I was on the call. Which makes sense because I am on Sprint.
The problem I have is from the same email address. I can receive an email instantly from the address and a few hours later when they send another email I do not get one at all. For instance last night I received an email at the exact moment the sender sent it at 7:00 PM. 4 hours later they sent one (11:00 PM), I did not receive it. I checked 1 hour after they said they sent it, had nothing and had to manually reconcile it.
It seems like on occasion there is a "hiccup" or something that causes the phone to "forget" to reconcile until I tell it to, then it's fine. It is strange. I am not sure how else to explain it.
