What has happened to Mail???

[slippery-pete]

Mail app is a MESS. Always running in background and burning battery life (I have tried every "fix" and none work) and emails taking forever to download...when they do download, they do so multiple times...badges/notifications showing nothing and 20+ new messages.

Is there any way to get rid of the i next to the VIP mail? Trivial as it may be, it bugs me 😁

It's been there since the VIP feature was released.

I've only just gone back to Apple mail after many years. Don't remember it being there. Thanks.

The current version of Apple Mail is evidence of the company’s desperation to continue adding value to its products in order to justify some notion of continuing ‘innovation’ and, incidentally, increasing product prices. The email Summary option, for example, is laughable in-your-face baby step effort of the AI. Let us pray that the gods provide guidance to developers to improve the ease of turning off innovations like Summary and the misguided changes to the Photo app. Real improvement will soon join Apple Silicon and be measured in nanos.

Mail on iOS 18.2: badge - 3 unread messages, inside Mail - 2 unread messages, inside mailbox - no unread messages.
I turned on my old iPhone 6 with 12.5.7, no problem with Mail.
Please consider leaving 1 star reviews for Mail https://apps.apple.com/app/mail/id1108187098 Maybe Apple will get the message this way.

my mail stopped with the notification sounds since updating to 18.2, even my iMessages have random ringtone outages and every app has sound on. should have stayed on 17...

I’ve also noticed emails from others that used to go to the Inbox are now going to the Spam folder, & there’s no way that I can see to not mark them as spam so future emails don’t go to spam….It adds an extra task of moving them to the Inbox….

I hate that I can't disable the Junk folder completely. It's disabled in the menu. Even addresses that I communicate the most with sometimes are in the Junk folder. I marked them now as VIPs but that doesn't help. Also this VIP function seems not to work for every address. Some are completely empty.

@Ralfi I remember this option from many years ago but don't see it anywhere now. There is no junk at the moment. But if it was in the right click menu I would have seen it.
