Where are Mail preferences in iOS?

There is somewhere in iOS that you can set how often Mail checks for messages. I can't find it. It's not in Mail settings as far as I can see.

It used to be in Mail, Contacts, Calendars, but that's now been split up into separate preferences.

Could someone point me in the right directions?

MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12.2), Late 2016 15" 2.7 GHz i7 16 GB RAM

settings -> mail -> account's -> fetch new, data and then at the bottom are the intervals. Those will then apply to each account set to "fetch" and with "push" off.

Did you try on iOS 10.2

Settings > Mail > Accounts > Fetch New Data > scroll down on FETCH?
