Hi. You can do this by going into settings/ mail, contacts calendars, and then under your account, there is an option called fetch data. You can set it to check for new every 10 minutes, 30 or 60. not sure if there are other times you can sschedule it. Either way, the phone will ding and vibrate once you have new mail, which it will automatically check for based on this setting. However, just know that the more often you tell the phone to fetch data, the more drain it will be on your battery.
