My 3rd party email imap account was not syncing on my iPhone. Specifically emails deleted on iPad or Mac Mini were not flowing through to my iPhone.


MY SOLUTION: Turn off private relay on my iPhone. I suspect hiding my IP address was causing the problem.


I hope this helps.

I tried everything, I uninstalled and reinstalled the mail probably 200 times. Each time after some time I get an "account error". But to make it interesting, when I reinstalled the mail, the mail works but only for an hour or max 2 hours and then there is an account error. before installing everything worked... Now I still used the mail on my old phone because it had iOS 17 - the mail worked there. But about 2-3 weeks ago there was an update to iOS 17 and then my mail was cut off. I love iPhones, I have had them for years but now I am so disappointed that I will not buy the iPhone 16 anymore. I will stay with the 15 pro. But only if they finally fix this bug. Because I really need the email for work.

My Mail app is no longer working on my iPhone. It keeps telling me I have a bunch of new emails and then wouldn’t show any all day and then suddenly 50 of them came in my inbox, but even as I open them and read them they keep showing us unread and when I delete them, they delete but when I go back into the Mail app, they are undeleted and it is not allowing me to send emails either.
