My email isn't working either. I can send, but I'm not receiving anything. I even checked my fetch email settings, put it on manual, but when I refresh my email inbox, nothing happens. I have also restarted my phone numerous times, but nothing seems to fix the issue.

Seems to be an issue with email every time Apple does an update.

that will be other type of issue, that is cert-related, not mail itself. 143 port offer often starttls (only explicit disable on some ip/subnet on the server can give possibility to raw client traffic traces, otherwise will be ssl-ed). so check the certs and their trust in system.

this issue initialy related to ios 18+ and problems are after server-login occurred (account added also as login checked in config without errors, but not getting messages from folders)

If you can not receive iCloud mail, go to Settings/Your Name/iCloud/Mail/iCloud Mail, and make sure, that "Use on this iPhone" is enabled.

I did not run into any issues using my 3rd party mail accounts or iCloud Mail on my iPhone after the iOS 18 upgrade.

@ingo2711 if you are referring to my comment --


I have deleted the account 20 times. I deleted the Apple Mail app from the phone, reinstalled from the App Store. it didn't help.


my comment about 3rd party email -- is a 3rd email app called Email - Edison Mail (from the App Store) I set up my mail accounts in the app and everything works as it should.


BTW - I never had the iOS 18 beta.

The issue is with the Apple mail app.


I've never had the iOS18 Beta installed,

Hi,

I am also expriencing these issues with Apple Mail App in iOS 18. Apparently mails are not displayed on iPhone 15 pro and iPad Air (M1). The app sometimes shows a 'Network error (POSIX 96)' error message, but also states a latest update timestamp - but no (new) mails displayed.

I have tried the following:

  • Restart Mail app
  • Restart device
  • Reset network settings
  • Uninstall Mail App -> Restart device -> install Mail App

None of the above has remediated the issue.

Sending Mail does work though.

Using the mail account with e.g. Outlook works.

Mail works under Mac OS Sequoia (Apple mail app).

Please fix the Apple mail app for iPhone and iPad!


Cheers,

Martin
