I have an iPad Air 3, version 14.8. I’m going mad here. When in emails I can’t scroll smoothly - it’s so jerky it makes my eyes ache. Also the edit function doesn’t work - all the ticked folders won’t untick. Thirdly, I can receive, but not send emails. They are, I assume stuck on the server as I don’t get messages to say they haven’t sent.
A forced restart of your iPad may help - as doing so will often resolve an isolated software issue:
There does appear to be an intermittent bug within iPadOS14 that causes the Mail App to misbehave. I myself experience a similar issue that reoccurs unless the iPad is restarted about once a week.

Two possible suggestions…
1) Backup your iPad using iCloud or iTunes - and then Restore your iPad to Factory Settings. This will both wipe the iPad and fully reinstall a fresh copy of iPadOS. After Restoring to Factory Settings, you can restore your data from your backup.

2) Seek assistance and advice directly from Apple Support. You will find the Get Support link at top-right of this page. Alternatively, you can open a support case using the excellent Apple Support App (recommended); of not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

A further alternative is to seek help from the technicians at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store:
I should have said that I’ve tried the re-starting method (a lot!) but it doesn’t change anything.
