Emails blocked, “error” message

Since last update, my email shows “error” message and blocks them from coming through. Has anyone else had this issue? I did change my email password but this should not be part of the problem. iPhone 12 mini

Hi Com007,


Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.


To help fix issues with your mail account on your iPhone, you can remove the account and add it back again. This allows the account to reconnect to the mail servers and can resolve this. Here's how to do this:


1. On your computer, sign in to your email provider’s website. Make sure that all of your email is there or make sure that your email is saved somewhere other than on your iOS or iPadOS device.
2. On your device, go to Settings > Mail, then tap Accounts.
3. Tap the email account that you want to remove.
4. Tap Delete Account.
5. Add your account again.
