My Email changed so I uninstalled it hoping it would come back looking like it did before but not only is it still different, but all my old emails are gone out of my individual folders. I know they are still there on the xfinity website but I'd like to have them in my Samsung email. Does anyone know how to get them back?

Thanks as always.

Because of limited phone storage, email apps, usually don't store anything fir more than a day or two. You have web mail with xfinity, do they will remain there unless and until you delete them. That is the nature if phone based email readers, which are differnt from computer apps like thunderbird.

Prior to when I uninstalled the app, the Samsung email app kept all my emails for years and years so it's kind of odd that its not bringing them all in now.

They may have kept them, but once you deleted the app, you deleted the data: the email. The app won't redownload them unless you soehow flag them as new mail

Sorry to have to disagree but I figured it out. Once I went into the settings and clicked on the folders to sync, all the emails are coming back.
