Help Block corporate email when on wifi

[John in Denver]

I just bought a Moto X (2d Gen). I set up my corporate email account on the stock corporate account on the phone The office server is M/S exchange. When I'm on my company wifi, I'm still receiving email on my phone. I'm sure it's not a ton of date or storage, but does anyone have advice how to stop receiving email when on wifi? Thanks.

I was going to suggest Tasker, but then I remembered that Motorola has a similar app called Smart Actions: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.contextual.smartrules&hl=en

I'm not sure what sort of options smart actions has, but you could configure it to turn off sync when connected to a specific WiFi network.

If that doesn't work, Tasker will definitely be able to do it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm&hl=en

Maybe even something like Llama: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kebab.Llama&hl=en

El Presidente's solution would solve your question, but I don't think that you really need to go that far. If you are on company wifi you are using zero data and usually negligible storage. If you were concerned about storage, you could limit the amount of space, but unless you are receiving Blu-rays in your e-mail not really necessary. I'm guessing you are actually complaining about receiving notifications about your e-mail on your phone when you are at work. You could disable notifications in the app instead. If i'm onto something here, a better suggestion would be to change the notification sound of your corporate e-mail to something unique. Then when you hear that sound you know you can ignore it.
