iPhone remind me emails keep coming back, even after moving to trash.

I use the iPhone email remind me function a lot, and it has been very useful.


however, I now have several remind me emails I cannot get rid of.


(1) If I delete them, they go into trash, but keep coming back in the remind me folder, usually the next day.


(2) There is no red Remove Reminder command below the calendar for these emails.

(3) If I set the reminder date to year 2025, they still keep coming back.

(4) If I drag the message title slightly left, and touch Clear by the clock icon, they still keep coming back.

(5) Later, Clear with a clock icon does not appear.


(6) Restarting my iPhone does not help.

(7) disabling remind me notifications in iPhone settings and restarting my iPhone does not help.

I’d appreciate any other workaround suggestions, because I doubt enough people have reported this problem to get Apple’s attention; after all, it worked properly for me for many months before this problem started.


I am on iOS 17.0.3 on a 2nd Gen iPhone SE, although the Apple device description does not show that.


Thanks


Kevin

KRDHarris,


Let's check webmail to see if the emails appear there.


Log into the your email via Safari, If they appear here that means they are reappearing in your account and just syncing to your iPhone.


If you are unable to remove it using webmail, you may need to contact your email service provider.
