Mysterious PUSH email account appears and can not be removed

[xythian]

All,

I got my Q about 2 days ago and love it so far. However, a mysterious messaging account named "PUSH" has appeared on the phone and can not be deleted. In fact, the Options can't be accessed at all for the account.

Where did this account come from and can I make it go away?

I first noticed it after changing the registry keys to disable pMSNserver from running. I've modded my Q quite a bit in 2 days with a series of registry edits and installation of the following programs.

AgileMessenger (trial)
Connected BitsWeather
Total Commander
Google Maps
jbB5 browser
AutoKeylock
.NET CF 2.0
Office WM6
Oxios Memory
PhatSpell
PHM Registry Editor
Candlelight
Spybot S&D
TCPMP
tGetFile
PocketNESterPlus
UPX4SP (nothing compressed yet)

It's worth noting that I currently have Gmail and Exchange setup on the Q.

You are correct!

Uninstalling and reinstalling jB5 makes the account appear and disappear.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I'm curious if there's any function for this PUSH account?

I also noticed it and I didn't know if it had to do with Palringo, but I did recemtly install jb5. So why would they put a push folder on there? sounds fishy.

Here's the explanation from JB5 in case anyone's wondering..still seems useless to me...
