I have my regular email setup and it works fine on the 6 plus. As of now, what ever I do on my phone syncs with the email server - like deleting email on phone it deletes it from server or move to folder it moves email to folder on server.

I would rather have it not sync with the server. I just like to read them on phone when on the go and manage each email when I get home on the PC. Is there a way to change the settings so I keep things the way they are on the server side? Hope this makes sense.

Some email accounts have an Advanced setting. iCloud and Gmail are the two accounts I know where you find this.

Tap the account then the email address. On the next page, scroll down to Advanced. Tap it. You'll find Mailbox Behaviours:

Tap one of the mailboxes. Now you can decide what happens in that mailbox, and where it should happen - iPhone or server:

Hope that helps.
