True, but Email app appears to have exactly the same setting there which was turned off. I'll wait 5 minutes and make sure it worked, but I think we have a winner :D

Strange that this setting is not accessible from within the Email app interface though, at least as far as my endless manic button mashing can tell.

Hmmm, curiously this setting appears to have made no difference
