Frustrating! Let's troubleshoot the issue together. Here are some steps to help you resolve the problem:
Check your internet connection

Check your email settings
- Make sure your email account settings are correct:
- Go to Settings > Accounts > [Your Email Account].
- Verify that your email address, password, and server settings are correct.
- Check if your email account is set to use IMAP or POP3. If you're unsure, try switching to the other protocol.
Check for server issues

Check for conflicts with other apps

- Check if any other apps are using your email account's credentials and try to close or uninstall them.
Reset your network settings
