"Unfortunately, Mail had stopped" Cannot send emails [HTC One M8]

[kwitel]

Just wiped the cache...cannot seem to get my stock email to work.

I can pull up the email and open it but once I try and click to type into the body of the email, it flashed the above message.

Any ideas?

Do you have the latest update?

Clear data & start over.

Clear data & start over.

Are you referring to a factory reset or something else?

1.Open the Settings menu either through your notification shade (drop-down) or through the Settings app in your app drawer.
2.Navigate down to “Apps”. This may be renamed to something like Applications or Application Manager in OEM skinned versions of Android 6.0.
3.Once in there, click on an application.
4.You’ll now see a list of stuff that gives you information about the app, including Storage, Permissions, Memory Use, and more. These are all clickable items. You’ll want to click on Storage.
5.You should now clearly see the Clear Data and Clear Cache buttons for the application.
6.Done!

Thanks for the instructions.
Unfortunately the problem still persists...

I have a feeling I am going to have to do a full reset.

Any other ideas before I try that?

Anyone else have any ideas?

I am having the same issues. Started about 3 weeks ago. Clearing data and cache doesn't work to fix it.

Uninstall the latest Android Web View update. Read this on another thread and it worked like a charm!

I just posted about this it's the Android Web view update that kills the stock email app. You have to uninstall it or get another email app to replace it.

The problem now is the phone seems to keep automatically updating to the latest version of the Web View and I have to repeatedly go back into it and uninstall updates.

Is there any way to prevent it from installing updates...at least until this situation is potentially remedied in a newer version?

Open Play Store, upper left hamburger and select My Apps, find Android Web View, select it and then in the upper right tap and uncheck the auto update box.

I have had same problem with my m6 in last week due to app update. You need to re!move the android webview update. Revert to the factory installed and all will be fine. Go to settings apps and remove webview.
