Apple's mail app on my ipod(touch 6th gen 32GB, iOS 9.2) is suddenly taking up 8.2GB of space, when previously it only took up some MB. I subsequently removed all my email accounts from my ipod but when I went into settings and storage, it still said that mail is taking up 8.2GB. Why is it doing this and what should I do?
maybe:
Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
Come back with the results.
An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
