iOS 18 mail won’t download yahoo mail in background until I open the Inbox

In IOS 18, my new yahoo mails don’t download until I open the apple mail app. The badge will say I have a number of new emails, but they don’t start downloading until I access the inbox. This worked until the upgrade and all I’m still set to Fetch every 15 minutes (yahoo doesn’t allow push) like before.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 18

Indeed, but this is general information. That doea not answer the fact that the mail app does not fetch email in ios18 as it did in previous versions. I have the same issue and all settings are just like before updating to ios18. The issue lies with the maill app not something else. I have several other email accounts also set to fetch and they work properly. The issue is only with yahoo accounts…
