Anyone found a solution?

Anyone found a solution for filing the emails? Previously while filing emails you get a recommended folder as per your usual preference. Now you have to scroll every time you want to file an email and try to find the folder you want to drop the email into. Seems to me Apple has taken a step backward after the latest updates since September 2019

iPhone Mail Filing Suggestions Previously when I would select an email (or a batch of emails from the same sender, such as order confirmations from the same vendor) and tap “move” to file them in the folder those emails normally go to, the mail app used to reliably suggest the file that all other emails from that sender were in. Recently, it’s stopped suggesting those folders for the most part and has started suggesting the “Important” folder as the place to file most emails, which means I have to tap the “move message” option and scroll to find the folder I want to file them in. Does anyone else have this issue or know why the mail app isn’t suggesting the correct folders anymore? It’s made email filing a lot more of a hassle.

Automatic iOS Filing of Emails I have extensive email folder structures for all my email addesses. I have all my email addresses on my iPhone 13 Pro Max (512 GB). Until iOS 17, when filing the emails I want to keep, in most cases I was offered the most likely folder to file the email. The system would be continuously learning this. Since iOS 17, this automatic offering of folders to file the emails has stopped. So, I find myself scrolling up and down email structures to file emails in appropriate places. With 70-150 emails requiring filing every day, this really is an unwelcome new task. Is there any plan to reinstate this highly convenient feature? Is there a new setting I have missed? Help would be highly appreciated.

Mail auto filing keeps just recommending important Previously when I would select an email (or a batch of emails from the same sender, such as order confirmations from the same vendor) and tap “move” to file them in the folder those emails normally go to, the mail app used to reliably suggest the file that all other emails from that sender were in. Recently, it’s stopped suggesting those folders for the most part and has started suggesting the “Important” folder as the place to file most emails, which means I have to tap the “move message” option and scroll to find the folder I want to file them in. I’ve tried waiting/training for the past month like in another post I found here and it just keeps showing important as the suggestion. I never had this problem before my upgrade to iOS 16

I presume that you mean "move" when you say "file". Watch the GIF below to file an email to recommended folder.
