That's how it's going to behave in the webmail when not explicitly initiating a fetch. Your email client on the other hand will fetch whatever is on the servers at the time it fetches it. So the actual polling time for a client is determined by that client. And like the webmail you can force a fetch in the client too.
Try it for yourself. Send an email to yourself in your client. It won't take 5 minutes (whether you logged into the webmail or not) to come back to your client's inbox (assuming it polls faster than that). Or force the fetch from the client using it's "get mail" or however it words it.
