If you're looking for something iPhone-compatible, then "no."
Theirs is
a proprietary system which from what I've read, seems to use SMS in
combination with IMAP. Wacky.

(If you aren't talking about iPhone compatibility, I'm less
knowledgeable, but dovecot does support IDLE-style "imap push" style
notification.)

Hmm, seems yes. Osx Leopard built in Mail application have now the IDLE 
check box. Does it mean, that now need to use  the classic "check for 
new mail after  xx minute" at all? Btw, seems in Thunderbird this imap 
push works well.
