Sparrow+: Jailbreak Tweak Makes Sparrow Default Mail App and Adds Push Notifications
The iOS counterpart of the popular email client for Mac - Sparrow, was released a few weeks ago.
Sparrow is an iPhone app with support for multiple email accounts, labels, a unified inbox, a sort by priority feature and more. Unfortunately, the lack of push notifications was a major downside.

This is probably the kind of tweak that Steve Jobs is rolling in his grave about. To replace the stock mail. The app and tweak is pretty cool. I just don't see a big difference from the stock app though that would make me want to even play with it except for being able to send from what ever account you want more easily. Unless I'm missing something. ????

if the push doesn't work for You just turn push off in the default mail app and it will work spend an hour figuring it out peace

settings -> mail,contacts,other - > feth new data -> disable PUSH then the Sparrow's PUSH will work :D

Hey Lance, all cool, push works. but i can't see a banner with the notification or how u setup it at notification center??? ...

Anyone know how to disable the new mail notification sound?
-
Settings >Notifications > Sparrow > Turns sounds off

I was wondering about the notification banner also, it not working for me. Check in Cydia, Under packages, then Sparrow plus... "In this version:"2. Fixed push problems (for now the notifications banners doesn't work)

Wondering if we can change the default tone of when mail is received ??Regards,RohitMobile Application Development

I need notifications to work in Lock screen!. I d/l intelliscreenX and it needs to show me my mail. Please fix this ASAP. I do not want to keep using my default mail app.

The badge icon changes like it's being pushed but did everything listed above and still not getting notifications. Great work otherwise!
-
Still not working here... I'm going crazy!

I've downloaded this tweak and I still can't get push to work. The only time Sparrow pushes new emails is when I launch the app. I don't think this tweak was updated for version 1.2.1.
