Removing the Account:

Have you removed the eMail account from your iPad and then added it back? Does this still occur?


Contacting the eMail Provider:

Contact the eMail provider, and see if they have any feedback on this. Perhaps it is a "synchronization" bug of sorts that they are trying to fix. See what they have to say on all of this.

"Any suggestions on how to block all the emails I don’t want? Spent hours unsubscribing and blocking and they keep coming back. Like sometimes 40 a day!"

View this link form Microsoft: Manage eMail Messages by Using Rules


Filter these eMails by Content:

Block out any eMail you do not want to receive. You would use filters to do so -- each filter of which would be based on content, in all referred to as a "rule."


Example of a Rule: Block every eMail from "jonnyappleseed@apple.com" that contains the word "PC"


Ask your eMail Provider About Filtering:

If you need help understanding more on filtering out eMails, contact your email provider, and see how to do so.
