I am using Safari to go to mail.verizon.com. Have done this for four years. In iOS 7 it worked fine. In iOS 9 it does not (see my earlier message). This morning I downloaded Firefox and Chrome for the iPad but they do not work any better in these respects.
I do not use "Mail." Among other problems, it does not sync with my computer (Mac). If I delete a message on one device, it is not deleted on the other.
Also I tried two Verizon apps but both required my Verizon wireless number; I do not have one (connect via DSL). I chatted with two Verizon reps but they could not suggest anything better.
Any help would be welcome. I will be traveling soon and will have only the iPad for email, so it would be helpful to have a way that works well. adTHANKSvance!

In iOS 9 if I expand the message window and try to scroll, the entire Verizon window goes up or down; the message may scroll a little but it is not nearly as easy to read as it was in iOS 7.
