Setting up a Signature

Would you like to change the text "Sent from my iPhone"? Go to Settings > Mail > Signature. Here you can set a separate professional signature for each account.

Editing & Deleting Emails

If you receive the error message "Unable to Move Message" when deleting an email, it is usually due to incorrect folder mapping:

  • Go to Settings > Mail > Accounts > [Your Account] > Account Settings > Advanced.
  • Under "Mailbox Behaviors," select Deleted Mailbox and ensure it is assigned to the Trash folder on the server.
