Hi there.
How do I permanently remove/delete email accounts from my phone. It doesn’t show on my emails/ mail app but once I go to settings, passwords & accounts all my old email accounts still show there.
How do I permanently remove them from the passwords & accounts ‘section’ as well?
thanks

Bianca_van_h,
Thanks for getting back to us and for providing that information.
What happens, when you select each email account that's listed? Do you see an option to delete the account from your iPhone?
If there's no available options, I recommend to see if there's a configuration profile installed on your iPhone by going to Settings > General. Verify and see if, "Profile" is listed. If so, you can go ahead and delete the profile to see if that helps remove the email accounts from your iPhone.
Cheers.
Hi Alex,
Thank you, have done that. Email account like gmail, yahoo removes that way. But all my other emails that has been setup via cPanel or a domain when you register for a website- those email account deleted in mail app itself but they won’t remove from the actual password and account section.
please see photo attached.

Hello Bianca_van_h,
Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand you'd like to remove your email account from the Mail app.
Managing your email accounts is important and I'll be happy to help.
To permanently remove an email account on your iPhone, you can go to Settings > Passwords & Accounts > select the email account you'd like to remove > Delete Account.
Kind regards.
