I actually went back and looked at that, and ended up finding it under the "fetch data," option, which was off by default. So why would they still be automaticly downloading every few minuttes? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Hall" <mehg...@gmail.com>

Push basically gets messages all the time. Turning it off should give
you a "check for mail every" option which you double tap. Once you do,
you can select how often you want mail to check for messages.

Hi,

you can't disable mail from downloading messages upon launch of the app. It just assumes, if your opening mail, you want to read mail. So, it retreives
mail from the server without no further prompting.

I looked under my mail settings but couldn't find that option.
Unfortunately, the only one I could find even remotely close to that, was
the preview option, which gave me "every 50, 100, 200 500 or 1000,"
messages I think it was, but nothing about changing how many were
downloaded, unless I had push enabled, which I don't, sense I don't know
what it is, and hear it eats up your battery life.

Hi Jessica,

this is not a area I use a lot, as once I got it working I never touched
the settings again.  But, I can offer a few general tips and hopefully
others can provide you more detailed help.

First, I remember when I first started using my Google account on the
iPhone there was no delete button.  You have a archive button instead.
Use that as you would delete and don't move things to trash. Someone else will need to chime in on how to get the delete button to show up, that is
if you want it to.  some people prefer the Archive button.

In settings you can change the mail behavior for downloading messages. I
have mine set up to only download when I open Mail.  this will give you
the behavior you want.  Again a better expert can walk you through the
settings but if you look under settings then mail, you should find it.

Hope this info helps a little.

I just tried using my Gmail acount on my IPhone, and everything seemed to
be going fairly well, until I started realizing that first of all, I
wasn't sure if the "move," command was actually deleting my messages,
sense I don't see a button to delete them, so I just told it to move them
to my trash folder.  Then next thing I knew, it was downloading them
faster than I could move them, and I can't find an option to make this
stop, which is eating away at my battery and cluttering up my phone, and
I don't want my mail to automaticly download anyway, sense my e-mail
isn't my whole life lol.
  So with that being said, can anyone help with this?
