iPhone and Wi-Fi

[Ambien]

Does anyone know if the Wi-Fi turns off after the iPhone is at rest for a length of time? I like the Yahoo Push Mail and it works... but after a while I notice my mail stops coming and when I turn the phone on, the Wi-Fi icon is gone.

When the phone sleeps, WiFi is turned off and isn't activated again unless you told something to periodically check the internet asks it activate again, IE mail checking settings.

...so, if I have my phone set down and I want my Yahoo mail to come through, then I need to have it check every so often?
