A malware banner at the bottom of my Mail page

Thank you. Getting hold of the horizontal bar enabled me to delete this ‘draft’ email. I’m still not sure how it got there in the first place - it was ostensibly from me to my husband, with a single, very long, http link. So it had clearly been generated maliciously.

Thanks again for your help.

Tapping on a mailto: link whether accidentally or intentionally will start a draft mail message, and tapping again somewhere off the draft mail message (and not deleting the mail message) will pause and place the draft mail message in the drafts folder.

What I asked if there was anything in your drafts folder, I was referring to your drafts folder(s) for your various email accounts.

If you touch and hold and drag the black, horizontal dividing bar (the bar between the unsent message text and the DealAlert text) downwards off the display, does that clear this?

Your connection to the mail server is also apparently malfunctioning, given that pending send.

Do you have a matching draft mail message in your drafts folder? If so, send it or delete it.

Any mail messages in your Drafts folder? If so, then delete, or finish and send.

No pending emails in outbox or in drafts. I’ve turned the phone off and on and have even deleted the email and re-added it.

Please post a screenshot of what you are seeing, edited or cropped as needed to exclude sensitive info.

I'm out of ideas.

Switch to full power mode, and see if that works better?

Is there possibly an add-on split-screen app installed on this iPhone? If so, remove it, restart, and try again.

I have the same issue, but, am not able to get rid of it by doing what you suggested (its not showing up as a draft email or in my outbox - and I can't swipe the horizontal bar). Any other ideas? It's driving me crazy!

No pending emails in outbox or in drafts. I’ve turned the phone off and on and have even deleted the email and re-added it.

Also, any time I click on it, an email pops up on the screen and disappears before I can click on cancel. It just appears to be some type of glitch.

So if you drag the black bar downward, it doesn’t disappear that?

No - It’s weird I can’t even “grab” it.

I totally appreciate your help. I was hopeful! Unfortunately, none of the above did the trick. Thank you, though!
