Deleted AOL emails show back up as New Mail

After deleting emails on one of my AOL email accounts, the emails (hundreds) show back up as new mail. I can re-delete them but just hundreds more from the past keep showing up. I have checked the settings for this email account and they appear to be correct.

I have read elsewhere that it might be an Apple bug. Any ideas on how to remedy this problem?

iPhone 11, iOS 15
