In this guide, I show you what to do if your iPhone or iPad is only showing emails from the last month. This fix typically works for people who have an email address ending in @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, @live.com or similar.
I’ve made a Youtube video that explains all the steps in this tutorial. Or, read on!
Time needed: 2 minutes.
How to stop your iPhone emails disappearing after a month
- Open up Settings
Go into the Settings app. Then scroll down to Mail, and then tap on Accounts.
- Select the email account
Tap on the email account that’s missing those emails.
- Change the Mail Days to Sync
Near the bottom, you should see: Mail Days to Sync, and it will probably say 1 Month. Change this to No Limit.
- Open your Mail app
Open your Mail app. Now you just need to wait a few minutes, and the emails should arrive on their own.
