So this is my issue: every time I open up Mail, there are messages sitting there that are days-old, even though I deleted those from my iPhone long time ago. (And I can confirm that those messages are gone seeing a nearly-empty inbox in Mail on OS X and in the iCloud web interface).

I already tried disabling and enabling again the Mail toggle in the iCloud settings, but the issue persists. Same results when I tried disabling and enabling Push.

I'm running iOS 7.1.2 in an iPad Air, and FWIW, I've been having this annoying problem since a long time ago.
 
Started this on 2014 running iOS 7.1.2, still having similar issues on 2016 with iOS 9.

Push mail doesn't work well on my iPad.

Has anyone else experienced something like this?
 
Man. Reviving a 2 year old thread about an issue you STILL have. Now that's a new one.

I haven't really had this issue myself. Have you removed the email account and re added it? Have you changed pushed settings? Have you contacted apple? Have you tried a restore? Are your login credentials correct?

So what should I have done according to you? Create a new topic explaining exactly the same thing?

Have you removed the email account and re added it?

Yep. Still the same.

Have you changed pushed settings?

Hundred of times.

Have you contacted apple?

Nope. No Apple Stores in my country.

Have you tried a restore?

I'm not a fan of restoring my devices because of a single issue—it's going thermonuclear to kill a little insect. I've put too much effort on my device installing things and configuring them, so I'd prefer to find the right cause of the problem and solve it.

Are your login credentials correct?

Nope. I check my Mail everyday through a magical portal that bypasses the need of any correct credential. :)

Well that was just a weird and unexpectedly snarky response. But ok.

If you don't want to contact apple through phone, do a restore because it's "too extreme" even though people do it all the time or anything like that, well then....I guess this issue is just barely enough of an annoyance to get you to comment about it online but not enough to really fix it. So I guess just...enjoy having the issue

Not helpful at all but... well, thanks for trying, I guess.
