I need email if I want to go to the cinema.
 
If I buy the ticket online, on the computer, they send it to my email.
The easiest way to collect the ticket on my phone is to have email setup
in there. Alternative is to plug the usb cable and transfer the PDF,
when there is one.
 
I need email to collect goods from an Amazon locker or point.
 
They send an email with a barcode that opens the locker. Sure, I can
print the email at home and use that instead of the phone, but using the
phone is cheaper and just more convenient.
 
 
It is not about instant notification. As a matter of fact, I disabled
automatic polling in K-9 to conserve battery.

I agree that energy consumption of e-mail polling is underestimated and
in particular of the push-function.

My mail on my phones has a polling frequency of 60 minutes and push
turned off deliberately.
