    Hi JulietAnne,

    Are your email messages from a POP or iMAP account?  Your profile indicates you are using iOS 6.0.1.  If possible, I would suggest backing up your iPhone and updating the iOS to the most recent version which is 9.2 to address this issue.

    Back up your iPhone

    Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    Take care,
