Q: iPhone keeps sending old email
I've had this problem for a long time. My phone will randomly emit an email send sound. I'll check my sent boxes and outboxes and there is no sign of an email being sent at that time.
The Apple Mail app is sending my wife copies of an email message that I originally sent 9 months ago. This is totally random - every one in a while, and sometimes several times a day - my phone keeps sending the same email. So far this email has been sent around 80 times.
This email is being send by my ATT / Yahoo email account. I tried wiping my phone and restoring from a backup but this doesn't fix it. I accessed the email server and I didn't find anything there, either.
We're going nuts over this. To make things worse, the email was a reminder that my wife had created an overdraft - a sore subject - and she's continually being hit with this. (I can imagine the article on CNET: "Divorce blamed on iPhone")
Any suggestions? (Having my wife create a spam rule is only a band-aid)
