    Mail>Account>Fetch New Data time only a global option?

    In iOS 10 I'm only seeing a single global setting, that applies to every account, to be able to specify the Fetch time.

    iOS 10 Mail text size varies depending on message?

    Does Mail for everyone else vary the text size of messages as the attached photo does for me? I don't know how/why this happens to change the text size of various messages. Would you guys consider this as a problem? Is this how your messages show up also? I'm running the iOS 10.0.1 Gold Master.
