The switch inside the car (on the facelift model anyway) operates straight away.  It does NOT work with the ignition on or even with the key still in.  I was once informed by someone that pressing and holding the switch in for 4 seconds allows the boot to be opened, even with the ignition on - but this is incorrect

depends on the age of the car..

early ones operate straight away, providing no key inserted.
newer ones a long press opens at any time.

unless someone has played with the wiring to amend things  :y

Earlier facelifts:
Ign out, press button, instantly opens

Later facelifts:
Press and hold for 3s, irrespective of key...
