How to stop emails from deleting on iphone mail

The frustration of emails disappearing on your iPhone! Don't worry, I'm here to help you troubleshoot and potentially fix the issue. Here are some steps to help you stop emails from deleting on your iPhone Mail app:

Check your Mail settings:

  1. Go to Settings > [your name] > Mail.
  2. Ensure that "Show To/Cc Label" is turned on. This might help prevent emails from being marked as deleted.
  3. Check if "Mark as Read" is set to "Mark as Read" or "Mark as Unread". If it's set to "Mark as Read", try changing it to "Mark as Unread" to see if it makes a difference.

Check your email account settings:

  1. Go to Settings > [your name] > Mail > Accounts.
  2. Tap on the email account experiencing the issue.
  3. Ensure that the account is set to "On" and not "Off".
  4. Check if the account is set to "Fetch" or "Push". If it's set to "Fetch", try changing it to "Push" to see if it improves the situation.

Check for email client issues:

  1. Try restarting your iPhone to see if it resolves the issue.
  2. Check if your email client is up to date. Go to the App Store and check for updates.
  3. Try deleting and re-adding your email account to the Mail app.

Check for email server issues:

  1. Contact your email provider's support team to see if there are any known issues with their servers.
  2. Check if your email provider has any maintenance or outage scheduled.

Check for third-party app interference:

  1. Check if you have any third-party email clients or apps installed that might be interfering with the Mail app.
  2. Try closing or uninstalling these apps to see if it resolves the issue.

Check for iOS version issues:

  1. Check if you're running the latest version of iOS. Go to Settings > General > Software Update.
  2. If you're not running the latest version, update your iPhone to the latest version.

Additional troubleshooting steps:

  1. Try deleting the email account and re-adding it to the Mail app.
  2. Try using a different email account to see if the issue persists.
  3. If none of the above steps work, try resetting your iPhone's network settings. Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may want to consider reaching out to Apple Support or your email provider's support team for further assistance.
