turn off an email account we can no longer access on the iPad

After changing ISPs the former email account was removed, but our iPad still tries to log into it. The server reports that the password is incorrect, which is odd. As a result, in Mail it wants me to re-enter the password before it will let me change any settings.

I do not want to remove this account because it has years of archived emails. I simply want to turn it off. But all of those controls are greyed out. Can anyone offer a suggestion on how to do this?
