Hi @Matthew G.11, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Could you try temporarily disabling the Dropbox from the Locations, rebooting the device, re-enabling it and see if you can access it again?

 

Are you using cellular data or a WiFi network to access the internet?

 

This will help me to assist further!

Sorry to jump in here, @Matthew G.11.

 

Are you using the Email app on your iPhone, or a specific email app, like Gmail, etc. to send your emails?

Is there a specific app you're using? Is it the Apple Mail app, the Microsoft Outlook app, or another app when accessing your inbox?

Okay, how are you accessing your email then on your phone if you're not using an app? Is it through a browser, or does an app load up showing you your inbox?
