iPhone 5 emails not coming through!

When my phone is connected to a wifi signal I can get my emails through "Mail" with no problem. Soon as I disconnect I get nothing. All I get when I try to refresh is "cannot get mail, no internet connection available". This is a lie because I have internet on the phone. I use Pandora, FB, and everything else just fine. Why is mail isolated here? I have Sprint if that matters.

I too am seeing the same problem. Rebooting only temporarily resolves the problem. I have a iPhone 5. I have a friend that also has a iPhone 5 and they are experiencing the same thing. When on wifi mail works fine, but if outside of a wifi spot, mail does not work. Seems to be some type of problem with the mail set up that it cannot detect a wifi signal and says it cannot access email. Everything else works fine (i.e. text, web browsing, calls, etc.).


Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem other than rebooting?
