I still have this incident.....

We are in December and iOS 11 is not new now.

I did all the updates hoping that this will correct the incident....

Now i am using other mail apps that don’t have this problem

This is really annoying and i am really frustrated that Apple do not correct that....

Argh! This has been happening to me sporadically for a month. I’ve lost 4 hours after troubleshooting with Sprint, Spectrum, Netgear (I even got coerced and suckered into buying their extended care program) and the Apple phone helpline. I know it’s an Apple thing because it happens concurrently with my iPhone 6 (with a brand new battery) and my iPad Air 2. I tear my hair out and wail and then suddenly it’s all back. I’m learning to become zen and patient until it magically resumes, or I move to the iMac. Is this part of Apple’s benevolent slowing down of older devices?

And so now I get no mail on my iPhone or iPad. I have to get it on my iMac. Grrrr. And Apple will replace iPhone 6 batteries for $29. I replaced mine last month for $79, and the problem did not get corrected.

Apple clearly has their heads buried in the sand about this Mail issue that is affecting thousands of users! And they lack professional courtesy by not participating in THEIR own forums! It's sad to hear Apple Care DOESN'T care one bit😠 I'm a 30+ year Windows IT guy who recently bought his first Apple computer (iMac), mistakenly thinking Apple was such a high end company, both hardware, software and support. Guess I was dead wrong, as they have clearly demonstrated their inabilities when it comes to support! I'm guessing they are so arrogant that unless a problem reaches crisis proportions, they simply deny that there is a problem🤔 I'd love for someone from Apple to set the record straight, but have little hope they'll ever do the right thing☹ Apple - you're not going to retain customers, or get new ones, using whatever "strategy" you're exhibiting with this Mail problem...

Forgive me if I may have misunderstood your question.

I have loaded the Email-Edison App onto both my iPhone and iPad. Incoming are displayed on both devices and if I create and send a message one device it is automatically displayed on the other. Similarly, if I delete an email from one device it automatically deletes it from the other. There is no such app for the iMac ( not that I can see anyway ) but in any case, Mail is working fine on my iMac. It’s only since iOS 11 that the email problems started to appear on my iPhone and iPad.

Regarding your buffering issue, are you referring to the time it takes to download the Email- Edison App ? It was very quick to download on the iPad but quite slow on the iPhone. Nevertheless, it was accomplished and all is running well.

Good news about the iPhone/iPad sync but in a perfect world (pre-this problem), if I deleted an email on my devices, it would also delete on my iMac (which is not wifi and working fine). My buffering issue is that IF the emails even download to my devices, when I try to open them they buffer. And buffer. And buffer. So, here I sit at the iMac. I just called my Apple tech from my last ticket and left a hysterical voicemail. We shall see.

I can assure you that if you delete an email from your iPhone or iPad, using the Mail-Edison app, that same email will also be automatically deleted from your iMac mailbox. Similarly, if you delete an email from your iMac that same email will also be deleted from iPad and IPhone.

Good luck with your buffering issues. I wish I could help but, frankly, I wouldn't know where to start !

I too have resorted to using the yahoo app. Instant mail and I don’t have to put up with,not only slow mail, but my whole inbox and subfiles disappearing in front of my eyes and having to wait for it all to download again. Which now seems to happen every other day!

Snail mail from the USPS is faster than Apple's Mail under iOS 11.x 😟 And nobody from Apple has an iota of professionalism by choosing to not respond to this topic affecting 1000+ users (that's just the ones that found this post, there are undoubtedly tens of thousands more!). I think I might stop consuming apples in the future 🙂

I was hoping that the latest update would help, But it is still slow. I have just lost ALL of my Yahoo emails AGAIN and they are reloading. Not sure why this continues to happen, but would greatly appreciate a resolution.

Obviously you haven’t had to deal with issues with Microsoft. Apple is a saint compared to them. I run my (new) PC next to my old iMac and the iMac wins EVERYTIME!!!!. There is so much more complexities in programming that the average person knows nothing about. 1 thing changed can effect how other applications are handled. At least there is an attempt. With Microsoft and that new 10 os, it has taken a year of I don’t know how many failed updates that don’t take 15 minutes to install and complete. Very frustrating. I will opt for Apple any day.... My mail is loading slower but if that is the only glitch, I am happy....it is only my secondary mail outlet...

It’s still definitely here. I have two Yahoo accounts and an Exchange account, and “Checking for Mail” can sometimes stay for minutes, like 5-8. Checking, loading, and even deleting can take forever, and if you exit the app before the thinking spinning wheel is done, nothing really gets accomplished.

I have same slow Yahoo e-mail on iPhone 6 & iPad Air 2 both running latest iOS 11 versions & it’s been like this since updating to the first iOS 11 version! I’ve tried the various solutions listed in this thread withough success... come on Apple give your e-mail app some love or I’ll be tempted to leave & try alternatives...

I totally agree as have same sloooooow yahoo & iCloud e-mail using native mail app since updating iPhone 6 & iPad Air 2 to iOS 11... is anyone from Apple monitoring these posts? I’m amazed if no Apple employees or developers dont have same issues!
