Been having problems with Mail since putting iOS 11 (and 0.1 and 0.2) on my 7+ and iPad 5th gen. I have my gmail account set to manual sync and the general "Fetch" settings to manual as well. However EVERY time I restart my phone or tablet the Mail app checks anyway. I don't want it to check at all since I use Inbox due to only using gmail. This worked fine on iOS 10.x. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I could "fix" the problem by just shutting off notification badges for Mail but that's not really a fix. Should I go into the account settings where the toggles are for mail, contacts, calendars, notes and shut off mail?
