Hi guys,
I have two mail related problems I need help with all on the one iPad. First off, I have 4 mail accounts setup. One of which is a Yahoo! account. When I open mail it opens this account first even though my default account is set to GMail. The second problem is that when I open All Mail Items it shows the emails but starts half way through them rather than starting with the most recent or even the oldest. I just picks one out of the middle & I have to scroll to get back to the ones I need to read. Any assitance on either problem would be greatly appreciated.

The Mail app is going to open wherever you last left it - it does not matter which account is your default email. This is the same for the last email opened. Wherever you were when you left the Mail app is where you will be when you open it again.

This is just the way the Mail was designed. And, unfortunately, there's no way to change these settings.

Hope this clarifies.
