It depends on your use-case.  I very deliberately put myself in the position of checking my email, despite having all of the technical pieces in place to have email pushed to me.<p>My work email polls every 30 minutes, with notifications disabled, and I check it as and when it suits my workflow.  My (personal) phone is always in Low Power mode, so doesn&#x27;t poll for email unless I open the Mail app;  I use offlineimap in combination with mutt for my home email (the same account which is on my phone), and it automatically synchronises with the IMAP server every 15 minutes, but again get no notifications and I check it whenever it suits me.<p>On top of that, all of my computers and devices are always muted unless I&#x27;m actively doing something that requires sound, like listening to music or watching a video, so even if there was an errant notification, I certainly wouldn&#x27;t hear it.  I also don&#x27;t have my phone set to vibrate.<p>I didn&#x27;t deliberately aim to operate in this mode, and gradually ended up here after a lot of single changes made over a long time, but I find that it&#x27;s the best way for me to work.
