IPhone gets mails while making calls despite pushing switched off

Hello,
My iPhone unwillingly (by me ) gets mail messages from the server while I make a call, (I have the mail pushing switched off).
I want to disable this because this way I'm unwillingly using my credit...
My iPhone didn't use to do this in the past (prior to the 3.1.2 update??).
Thanks in advance for any clues in resolving this.

Yes (and No...)
In the first screen ("Settings" -> "Mail") "Fetch new data" was set to "Off".
Which, surprise surprise, made me think it was switched off...
After reading your reply I decided to have a deeper look at this. I clicked on the "fetch new data" button. Another screen came up where one can select how often your phone is supposed to fetch. Also here a "√" sign next to the button "manually" made me think the settings were ok.
I then decided to click the "advanced" button at the bottom of the screen to see what else was there.
And guess what, the settings for each individual mail account (I read more than one email account), were set to "fetch"...
I switched them for each account to "manual" and now everything is fine!
Confusing to me, but ok, it seems to work, so thanks a lot!

    Hi varinder22,
    If you haven't already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPhone:

    If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes. Please be sure to backup your iPhone first.

    While making call if I am using loudspeaker mode, I am not audible to other end

    Hi Vinzgenius,
    From you are describing, it sounds like an issue with the microphone. Take a look at the article below to troubleshoot the issue further. Check to make sure that you do not have any Bluetooth devices connected as well as restarting your iPhone.

  • My iPhone4 struck while making call i cant see any icons??

    I had updated my phone to 4.3.5 after that,some times  My phone is going un responsive while making calls and taking calls. Please let me know the solution

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose any data doing a reset.

    Try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.

  • Gets hot while taking video and screen goes off so many times

    gets hot while taking video and screen goes off so many times

    Sounds like something is obstructing the proximity sensor on your phone. It is usually at the top of the display next to the ear speaker. You didn't say what you have. Usual suspects are a screen protector or dust.

    I'm also experiencing the same issue.
    I've had to reset my password 3 times in the last 3 days.
    At first, I couldn't get my email. I sweated it out for 12 hours, reset my password and I was good to go again. 48 hours later, I ran into the same issue. Only problem is, not only do I get the 'Incorrect username or password' on my device, but my iCloud.com login no longer works. so now I can't read my messages on the web OR on my device/computer.
    I have went to appleid.apple.com and reset my password there: no luck.
    I have reset the settings on my device: no luck.
    I have Erase and Installed iOS 6.1.2: no luck.
    I have restored my device back to factory settings: no luck.
    I have performed a DFU restore: no luck.
    This is my main account for, well everything.

  • HT1414 my iphone I5 with latest OS 7.0.4 switched off interminately and I have to hardboot the device again

    my iphone I5 with latest OS 7.0.4 switched off interminately and I have to hardboot the device again. is there any solution?

    Try to set it up as new device without using the latest backup, in case the backup contains corrupt data causing this. If it works after that, restore from the latest backup to get your data and settings back.

  • The flashlight in my iphone 4s keeps lighting even when it is switched off. I went through many articles and in those was mentioned presence of humidity could be one reason, but my phone was not prone to such conditions

    The flashlight in my iphone 4s keeps lighting even when it is switched off. I went through many articles and in those was mentioned presence of humidity could be one reason, but my phone was not prone to such conditions & it is the condition when i took it from its pouch. Kindly help

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • Trouble while making calls

    Has anyone experienced while making a call that the iphone 3gs' screen goes black? This has already happened to me twice and i've only had the phone for 2 days. When it happens I can't even power the phone back on. I have to connect it to the charger to get the screen back. It has occurred a few other times when in the contact list also but the screen comes back up immediately.
    Is anyone else having issues with the contact list moving slowly when opened on the main screen? This is not a problem when I access it through my phone icon.

    The screen always goes black during a call. Like Tamara said, the proximity sensor switches it off to save battery.
    In comparison to the 2G, however, I got the impression that it a bit longer until the screen wakes up, or even sometimes hangs until it returns.
    I had the same black screen which wouldn't turn on for a couple of seconds after using voice mail.
