I have a iPad mini with 3 email accounts linked to it. All 3 accounts are cleared of all mail. When I go into general, usage, on my ipad it still shows 1.2gb being used from my 16gb on my machine, help please
 
The email is only a minor part, Your OS should be taking up more than that. As an example if you had a 16 gig phone and had nothing on it right out of the box you are only going to have 12 gigs roughly OS available space so I am not sure where you are going with this, It is normal.
 
I understand what you are saying, that I won't get 16gb of storage out of a 16gb ipad.

The issue is when you go into what each app is using of storage, email is using 1.2gb when no emails are stored.
