Have you given Microsoft Outlook a spin? I’ve only used it on the iPhone and 
surprisingly enough, I’ve found it to be a very accessible and overall pleasant 
experience. I would have to imagine that their iPad version is at the same 
level of accessibility. 

I recall reading some security issues with the Outlook app when it first came 
out, but if that’s not a concern to you, then it may be what you’re looking for.

I currently have two exchange accounts and one iMap account configured through 
it.

The one issue I have is in the calendar’s agenda view. Voiceover reads an 
appointment’s date before reading the actual app details when flicking through. 
This is superfluous since you can jump to a day by heading which announces the 
day anyway. I’ve written the Outlook support team about this. Hoefully they’ll 
address it in a future update. I’m hopeful as they have made Voiceover 
improvements in the past.

Hi Alan, no, it's not possible to disable the split screen mode in Mail, hence 
my question. I'm not a fan.

I believe you can turn split screen mode off in settings.  Or at least you can 
in the iPad Air.  I kind of like it once I got use to using it. The list of 
messages in the email program for example show the list of messages in the left 
hand window and the messages one by one in the right window.  For example, in 
the left window you might see New Topic 7 messages in thread.  Double tapping 
on it will then show the messages in the right window with the oldest message 
in the thread already highlighted.  Just double tap that and the message opens. 
 What I like is in the left window when your looking at the list of topics or 
threads if you like that word better.  When you have split screen mode turned 
off,  It would be like looking at your mail on your iPhone.  I like the split 
screen for that.

Hi everyone, I'm curious to know if anyone has tried any of the alternative 
email clients for iPad and which you have found to be accessible.

I'm not a huge fan of the split screen lay-out of Apple's Mail app on iPad, and 
would like to try an accessible full-screen solution if one exists.

It would need to be able to connect to iMap and Microsoft Exchange servers.

Thanks a lot for any suggestions.
