Hello Mjmsurrey,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, you can't delete email drafts on your iPad Pro. We'll do our best to assist.


When you attempt to use the following steps to delete the emails showing up in your Drafts folder, what happens exactly: Delete emails on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


Are these iCloud email drafts or through a third-party provider?


Tell us more about what's going on when you attempt to delete these drafts.


Hoping this helps out, take care!

Hey Mjmsurrey,


If you select/tap on the draft at the bottom of the Mail app to open it again, are you able to select 'Cancel' on the top right and then Delete Draft?


That should allow you to clear it.


In case it doesn't, have you tried reinstalling the Mail app? You could remove the app by tapping and holding on the icon until the pop up appears, select 'Delete App' (not only from the Home Screen, but altogether), then redownload it from the App Store.


Note: This step will also delete its data, but any documents or data stored in iCloud will not be deleted.


Hoping that does the trick, cheers.
