Emails suddenly full of equal (=) signs! Sony Xperia Aqua

Hi, I'm using a Sony Xperia Aqua and for no apparent reason all my incoming emails are suddenly peppered with random '=' signs all over the place. When I download the same emails on my laptop the = signs aren't there in the incoming emails, so it's all a bit strange.

Please does someone know how to fix this?
Grateful for any help offered.
Thank you.

I'm having the exact same problem. Someone please help!!

Hi guys,

 

Have you made sure that the phone’s on the latest version of software?

 

Are you getting any other issues or error messages on the phone when you try and use it?

 

Thanks,

 

Laura

Hi Laura,

 

My phone has the latest system software and I don't have any other issues apart from the e-mail.

 

Thanks.

Hi Laura

 

Yes, my phone is using the most recent software update, and there are no other problems with it.

 

Thank you.

Hi you could try clearing the data in the app settings or delete the email account and then set it back up.

Hi,

 

I've tried your suggestion and it hasn't made any difference. 😞

 

Thanks for your suggestion though.

Hi @karlryan and @bigblueamazon,

 

It seems Sony are receiving several reports about this and are handling it internally.

 

A workaround that they've suggested in the meantime, is to use the Gmail app instead.

 

Many thanks,

Ben

Thanks, Ben - much appreciated!
