Hi there, can anyone help me, suddenly all my e mails being sent have a Red Circle with a Red Line across the Circle. Does anybody know why this is please because it’s not been in my sent e mails before ?
iPad, iPadOS 18
Okay, had a little fun. I have several email addresses, so I used my Comcast account and first went into my Sent folder and then tapped on my name as the sender for a mail and blocked it. That caused my entire Sent folder to get the icon.
Then I sent myself an email to my iCloud account. This is what they looked like in my Inbox and after I opened it.
Then I went back into my Contact, unblocked myself, and all of the red icons disappeared.
Can you please provide a screenshot to show where this icon is and what it looks like. That can go a long way to help diagnose the issue. Make sure you redact any personal information from the screenshot.
This is some of my sent e mails even though they are all marked with this !
Hi Chris did you get my reply there ?
Are those blocked senders?

Interesting information. I never saw anything like this. Good catch lobsterghost1. To the OP, sorry I wasn't back here, I had to go to work for a while.
I agree.I was trying to get there, but thank you for the link to the discussion. I was looking, but couldn’t find one.
Chris and Jeff, you're both welcome. I hadn't seen anything on this before either.
I'm going to have to try that in a bit when I'm done messing around here. I didn't realize I could block myself!

Me either. Nor am I sure why I would want to block myself?

Thanks for taking the time to validate this was what the Author needed! Still not sure why one would do this in the first place, however?
Understood. I don't think it was intentional, but at least we learned something. Have a great night.
Red Circle with line across !
