My Iphone 6 is deleting my email as soon as I open the the email. Any ideas why or what to do?

Does anyone know why my iphone 6 would start deleting my email messages as soon as I open the app? Sometimes it deletes them before I read them and sometimes after, but it just started doing this and I don't know why. I just downloaded 8.4 after this problem, hoping it may help somehow.

Hello pdaylor1,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


I see from your post that your emails are being deleted either before or while you read them. I know this must be a very frustrating issue, so to start troubleshooting it, I'd like you to remove the account and then add it back to your iPhone.


  1. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
  2. Tap the email account.
  3. Tap Delete Account.
  4. Add your account again.
