Not able to open attachments in email after dowloading ios 9

As penance for incorrectly calling the resolution of the issue following the iOS 9.1 upgrade I have spent the evening drafting a new fault description for the apple feedback site. Feel free to copy from this post and submit as many times as you like at: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

Subject:

iOS 9 issue with pop/smtp email

Description:

Following upgrade to iOS 9, the content of emails downloaded to pop/smtp email accounts are randomly lost after roughly 24 hrs. The email content is replaced by the message: This message has not been downloaded from the server. The same email accounts on an iMac running OS X Yosemite & another iOS devices still running iOS 8 do not exhibit this behaviour. The 4 iOS devices upgraded to iOS 9 (iphone 6 & 5c, iPad 3 & air2) all exhibit the same behaviour.The same behaviour has been confirmed at iOS 9.0, 9.01, 9.02 and 9.1. Unlike ios8, when mobile data is not available on the iOS9 devices image content is lost from downloaded emails.Loss of the email content is unrelated to emails presence on the email provider's server. This iOS9 bug has resulted in the loss of irreplaceable user email data.

thank you for writing that up for us...I did submit that too!!

as another thing I noticed today as a fr asked me a question about something back in August so I went to my calendar and everything in the past has been deleted from my calendar....the stuff going forward is still there but why is my older stuff now gone????

Exactly same problem wih my iOS 9 devices. Major pain in the arse. Data lost. Who is running Apple these days - Barnum & Bailey?

I am also unable to open any attachments after the ios9 upgrade. I use a POP account for business purposes. This is one "upgrade" I did not anticipate that changes everything to a negative for me. Can Apple please fix this?
