• Does iPhone's iOS v16.4.1's Mail app have a bug in having multiple diff

    From Ant@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 30 20:12:34 2023
    Hi,

    Does iPhone's iOS v16.4.1's Mail app have a bug in having multiple
    different email accounts (e.g., IMAP personal & MS Exchange's Office 365
    work)?

    Earlier this morning, my client's iPhone 11 Pro Max's Mail app's IMAP
    personal account got his work's USC.edu exchange e-mails that made a
    mess, made it run out of 300 MB of disk space, and lost e-mails since
    the 27th. Work one seems to be OK. Both accounts have thousands of
    e-mails. He also use webmails for both in his MBP's web browsers too. :(

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

    I've been using 3 accounts just fine: yahoo, gmail, and icloud.

    I use gmail most, but none of them have thousands of emails. Maybe
    there's a limit to how many ios can store locally?

    Nope. I've used it with various accounts from various services for many
    years without issue.

    Works perfectly here with four mail-accounts (all IMAP) and a Cal-DAV
    and a Card-DAV account outside iCloud for many years now. OS-Version
    stands at 16.4.1.

    An update on this weird issue with my client's old iPhone 11 Pro Max's iOS v16.4.1 Mail app.

    Four days ago, I started with clean/new e-mail accounts (deleted the old ones) in iPhone's
    Mail app. It fixed all these weirdness. However, about 30 minutes ago this app showed nothing
    in work's MS Exchange section. Even its inbox was empty or showing the personal e-mail
    account. Rebooting didn't fix it too.

    And then, I remember changing USC.edu's NetID account password, due to its silly one year
    change requirement, earlier this morning PDT when I checked this 4 days old MS Exchange
    account setup's settings in iOS' mail settings. It said password was wrong and to re-enter it.
    Why didn't it not tell me this in its Mail app? Re-entering the updated password fixed it. Why
    did iOS Mail even show empty and personal e-mails in iPhone's MS Exchange account?

    It was weird and scary. Is this a known bug? :(

    Ask Microsoft.

    I think I told you that the problem is $MS$ and not Apple with a very
    high degree of probability. They still have this odd believe that they
    set standards. That the mails were shown has probably to do with the cache.

    Caches. How do I purge them without deleting and recreating the e-mail setups? --

    Had the same with one of my clients.
    Looking for some weird bug would be a lot easier if iOS/macOS just told you when the password was wrong :-/
