emails on iPad app

[ShaniBrough]

Fo r the last few weeks I’ve been unable to send emails from my IPad. I can from my phone and the PC. The advice I’ve been researching suggests deleting the app and re installing? However, I get the warning that I will loose all my data . . . .does that mean I loose all my emails, past and present?

If your email account is set up as IMAP,  you won't lose anything.

How do I know if my email account is set up as an IMAP? Where do I look?

In the settings of your email app.

Do all your devices synchronise mail? If so, they will be set up as IMAP.
