Thank you for prompt reply. I am a Mac user, very familiar with MacBook and IPad2.
Have used Mail programme a lot on IPad 2, have not experienced this problem before.
Turned off IPad2 off and on several times but when I open up again and open Mail, the email I was trying to send is still there blocking the screen, I cannot delete it and it blocks access to my accounts.
Have deleted the wording of the email in question but cannot delete the template.
I am abroad and really rely on my IPad, especially right now when I have a tenant crisis!
When home in London the wonderful Geniuses at the Apple store can be contacted but can't work this problem out for the moment .
Thanks again,
