(View all)Please tell me 13.2 has done something with Exchange. This is getting ridiculous.
Yes I have deleted and re-added my exchange account. No I don't care how perfect its been for your exchange account. These are production emails I am missing running a production build of iOS.
Get it together Apple.....
How many people in these forums complained about Exchange issues throughout the iOS 13 beta track and had tickets open with the Feedback app.....
