There was an update (issued via Store Updates) that seems to have fixed the issues with Gmail.

The update is dated 17th July 2020 and I noticed it about a day later and re-installed my Gmail to the Mail/Calendar App. Since then, I have not had problems with Gmail.

Occasionally, I still have formatting issues with all Email accounts. The most common is when the text in the Email appears in a single one letter wide vertical line.

The quickest way to fix it is :

· Click “Forward” so that you get access to the “Format” Menu;

· Place curser in the body of the email and click Ctrl/A to select all;

· Then go to Format Menu – Drop Down and click the bottom “eraser” icon to remove the formatting.

You will then be able to read the Email. After, click “Discard” to delete the Forwarded copy of the email (or insert addresses and send it).
