Emails disappearing before being read and it says 2 unread when there are none

[Jenny72]

There are no emails in my inbox as they have disappeared once I clicked on them to read them. It says there are 2 unread emails when there are none. I've tried deleting the mail app, reinstalling the email details, I've tried using the BT email app (it still says 2 unread), I've gone on the email page on bt.com (still 2 unread). 

Is there any way of getting rid of the false 2 unread number and stop it deleting the emails before I've read them.

Thank you

Hi @Jenny72, welcome to the forum and thanks for posting.

Sorry that you are having these strange issues with your email account. Have you recently changed your password?
Have you checked on webmail www.bt.com/email if the same issues occur on that platform. If not test it out and post back and let me know how you get on.

cheers

Hi John

Thanks for your reply.

I haven't recently changed the password.

When I go onto the webmail page I get new emails and can read and delete them but once they are all deleted it still says I have 2 unread in the inbox

Thanks

Hi @Jenny72,

We may need to take this in and help you out. Before I do, can you change your email password for me, please? Also, do you know if you had any other devices accessing your email address other than the app? An old email client perhaps like Outlook or Thunderbird?

Thanks

Hi @DanielS 

Thanks for your reply.

I've changed the email and forwarded an email from another device. It appeared for a split second and then disappeared.

I haven't accessed the emails from anything apart from the ipad and been on my BT website mail page.
