So wait you guys are getting push notifications or do you mean like refreshed notifications push means as soon as it happens you get notified(like with gmail) while refresh means at a specific time it will check for notifications

I had the same issues on that ROM.
I just downloaded the email app called k9 mail for free from the market, and was able to setup and access my email without an issue.
There seems to be a problem with the stock email app, supposed to be fixed in the next version of the ROM.
Ahh i see
I tried k9 before i just didnt like it
Ill update to eco5
Thanks for all the help you guys

If u get widget locker:
It allows you to use the notification pulldown while locked. When i started using handcent i missed that slide to read. but now i can just pull down the pull down and click any notifications
Also if u delete the stock mms. It makes MMS not go through.

Actually I deleted it and MMS have gone through perfectly a couple 30 times since I've deleted it.
There's an option in handcent to handle both mms and sms.

Mine has been that way since I got the phone and even after the 4.1.2 update. Talked to tech support and went to an at&t store and no one could help me. Got fed up and finally downloaded an email app, k-9 mail and haven't looked back. I now get all my email notifications, it also has other neat features and customization options.

Download APK for FB Home HERE
After installation of that apk go to Play Store and update both FB and Messenger (or just open FB Home and it will prompt you)
Mine keeps saying "your device is not supported yet" though. Perhaps the compatibility is with stock TW only?

Uninstall the current Facebook you have and use the two apks provided.
I uninstalled. As soon as I installed.
Biggest POS and waste of time if you ask me. To let FB be a complete home replacement, no settings to organize post from most resent. Its just horrible and looks like a battery drainer and a network hog. So if you're really passionate about FB (I don't see why anyone in the world would be) this is for you. If not, you'll probably just uninstall like me. Just my 2¢

It's a Samsung issue. I've been experiencing this on every Galaxy phone I've ever owned. On HTC phones it's never an issue. Just ignore it when it happens, it'll go away when the Samsung email server is done being retarded. Also if you click on the notification it'll ask you to enter your password again, just ignore it because you don't have to. Either don't click on the notification and clear it out or back out of the password section if you already clicked on it. Makes no sense to key it in because it's just going to fail again as the correct password was already set when it failed.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
My theory is that the Samsung email app is a bit too proactive in alerting about Yahoo sign in errors where other email apps do not. I get them too.
I also have k-9 mail and have noticed that when i have it set to check email at certain time frames and yet i get emails much after their time stamps sometimes. This is perhaps because it couldn't sign in to poll/check for email at the set time (for whatever reason, either on k-9 mail's part or Yahoo's servers) and so just waited for the next polling to retrieve emails.
I have the same issue and it is driving me crazy sometimes I feel like throwing the phone as far as I can cause I get the alert a lot. The thing that I do not understand is that it may not do it for a hrs or a day or so, but there are sometimes it is constantly going off everyone is still having this issue?
I use the Yahoo Mail app and have never had that come up in almost a year.
Try their app over the stock email app and see if that fixes.
