Starting with the latest iOS I am unable to search my mail folders for past emails. I get a message saying “Some Results May Not Appear”. I have had my phone locked charging and connected to the internet and still cannot search messages.
iPhone 15, iOS 18
This typically indicates that the mail app is still indexing your content in the background. Large email accounts with lots of folders and messages take time to index. There are a few things you can do to speed up the process:

I've had the same problem for weeks now - and every night my phone is locked and connected to a fast wifi network (>200Mbps).
My wife was travelling yesterday and couldn't access the email with her ticket and reservation details for the same reason.

Apple's participation in this forum is largely limited to making sure everyone behaves. So, if you are expecting to see an acknowledgment here, know now that that is not going to happen.
They should offer options to:
"force update/sync now" - am at home today, wouldn't it be great to just finish the update this afternoon...?!
• allow users to use mobile data if they want to
You can let Apple know what you'd like to see here:
I also believe they should offer a way in settings to back off and delete the most recent update. So often these things happen and it could be proven or temporarily fixed by taking out the last update until the next update.
in this case neither of your suggestions work. That has been proven by me and several in this and other chats who’ve tried it without success. This IS a problem with the update. It doesn’t just stop working after the update for no reason, or oops even though you didn’t change anything suddenly your email file is to big. Doesn’t work that way. Those are BS answers to buy time to try to figure out what happened with the update and how you can stealthily release a fix. I used to do support for a company years ago. You’re welcome.
Hi. I have left my phone locked plugged in and connected to WiFi for large fractions of a day every day for weeks.
