I've noticed some odd behavior in the iPad OS in the past few days. I have 4 different email accounts. Periodically I get email from a source that has more than one of my addresses. In the past week, I've had two distinct issues I haven't seen before. Issue 1 is that an email (or many) gets downloaded from the server to my iPad. I read it and if it is important take some action and store the email in a holders where I can return to it in the future. Lately, on occasion, it happens that I need to go back to the message and get the notation "this message hasn't been downloaded from the server". And there seems to be no way to force the downloaded again. Strangers till, the message might have been received at more than one server, and when I check it in its file on my iPad, I get the same message. That doesn't sound like an external error, but instead something amiss with the mail.app.
Tyevsecond problem is even more bizarre, and it has now happened often enough that I think it, too, is a problem in the mail app. Same basic scenario as above, except that in these cases,the message headers and the message bodies get mixed up. Two examples:. An email with a shipping confirmation from the vendor Crazy shirts has the body of an email from a photo software company Topaz Labs telling me that I have a free update to a piece of their software. Avsecond example:. an email from my former workplace inviting me to donate to a scholarship fund, mixed up with the body of an email from Amazon, telling me that someone item was shipped. When I look at these same emails on my laptop, they are fine with headers and messages correctly attached.
There is no predictively to these events are than the fact that it happens several times per day.
Anyone else seen anything like this. I haven't updated my phone's OS yet so things seem fine there.
