imap push means something like imap lemonade
No, the LEMONADE profile (RFC 4550) is a set of extensions for IMAP. The focus is on saving bandwith and CPU while working with email on mobile devices and similar limited items. For this it describes how to handle email without the need to completely download it for replying or forwarding. There is nothing about push mail. Howerver IDLE is mentioned as an additionally extension which must be supportet.
If you take a look on the website, you will see the push functionality is only a reference to IMAP IDLE as in RFC 2177.

I don't know about iPhones IMAP client but the default IMAP client for Blackberries is very good -- even better then K9, which I use on my Android.
