Hello Sieghard, I have just received an e-mail and read it in the usual way. As far as I can tell there is nothing special or peculiar about this message.
Having read it, I exit the message as usual, so I’m back in my inbox. Now, if I exit the mail app via Task Switcher and relaunch the mail app I am back in the message I was previously reading. As Richard suggested, I go to my home page then bring up Task Switcher, then quit mail, at next launch I’m back in the message. This behaviour persists even if I restart my iPhone. Strangely if I leave it for a while around 7 hours normal behaviour is restored. I have experienced this no matter what folder a message resides in. The other day I went into my sent messages folder and even though I then switched back to my inbox and read other messages I received, on launching the mail app the sent message was opened for me. Rather strange.
