It would be nice if the lock screen actually showed new mail you receive or some kind of notification on the lock screen itself...
Settings --> Notifications --> Mail --> [select the mail account] -->
From there you can decide if that specific mail account will show on the lock screen, and if you turn on "Show Previews" you get the sender, subject, and the first few words of the email.
If the screen is off, it will turn on for a few seconds when a new mail arrives to show you the notification. Quite handy if you have the phone sitting on a table or desk. It lights up, and with a glance you know if it's something you need to read right away or if you can ignore it for now.
Hope this helps.
