Have you set-up iPhone Settings? Remember to set these under "Get new data" (or something like this...I'm Danish.. ;) )

Set it to every 15 minutes / 30 minutes / 1 hour etc.

Push= Off

Get (hope this is right..)= Every hour (My advise to you)

Advanced= Set-up all the mail accounts that you want the iPhone to pick up every hour..

I don't know why you're not get any "red notification" when receiving new mail(s)!?

In "Advanced" you just chose the mail accounts that you want to get...

I have my private, business, Gmail - I just use my business in this case. :smile:

Try settingnthe email on your iPhone from scratch.

Your iPhone is probably set to always BCC yourself.
