On an iPhone 6 - STOP automatic email download?

RE: iPhone 6, iOS 11.0.3


How do I stop automatic download of emails? 😕

In other words, I want email download ONLY when I manually say so, like normal email clients.


A Google search came up with confusing instructions with choices NOT on iPhone 6.

Go to Settings>Accounts & Passwords>Fetch New Data, then turn on/off whatever you wish. You can select individual mail accounts and set them for whatever schedule you wish. To only get mail when you open the Mail app, then set them to Manual.
