Can you just use the background refresh, and fetch for new emails like every 5-10 minutes or something? Email is not messaging, don't really care if I receive some email 5–10 minutes later, unless I am expecting email (like email verification), than I will be opening the mail app by myself.

Problem with that is that

    earliestBeginDate

means that you can request a no-earlier-than begin date. iOS does not guarantee it will run ON that date, or within x time-units. It merely provides a minimum delay until it MAY get scheduled.

Sure. I understand. But that is something I can leave with. Even just once a day pull the email for me and notify that I have new emails. If I expect anything right now, I will open my email app and refresh it.

I don’t get notifications when my real mail arrives, I just go every other day and check.
