Hi Mo and Eleanor
Mo! many thanks, it seems a little drastic to delete the mail app and set it up
again. It is very strange considering Eleanor's comments on the amount of
space she is currently using in the Mail App. There was a 8 minute video we
tried to send but the process failed and that is why we have now deleted all
email messages in all folder in the Mail App-very odd.
best wishes
Henry

I wonder how Henry has so much storage taken up with email. I have hundreds of
emails on my iPhone 5s it's five email accounts! and it is only taking up 20
7KB storage! this would include email attachments!

Hi Henry.
The only solution unfortunately may be to delete your email account and add it
again. Its ridiculous, but the email app persistently seems to cache emails
even if you get rid of them. you could also use another email app like acompli.

Hi
Trying to create more free space on my IPhone 5S 32 GB running the latest I O S
10.0.2. I noticed that Mail was using 4.3 GB of space and I deleted all emails
messages in all folders. However, When I go to setting, storage and ICloud
usage, and then manage
storage, I discover that mail is still using 4.3 GB. This is despite
switching off the phone and restarting. In addition, the amount of free space
on the IPhone is slowly diminishing, obviously there is data being accumulated
but I don't know where to search. Facebook is 1.4 GB and this also needs to be
reduced in size.
Please can anyone offer some suggestions?
