Are you on the latest version (1.8)? there was a fix for this recently.
Also to reinstall it, you must first delete the profile it created in from the Settings app.
The primary benefit of work profiles for isolation:
- the ability to freeze the app, preventing it from running
- the ability to grant it file access without it having access to your files (although this is less necessary in Android 13 or GrapheneOS)
- the ability to use a separate VPN connection for apps in it
It does not and cannot provide protection against security issues.
If you do, be sure to not route the email app through Tor/Advanced Privacy: Advanced Privacy - #39 by Brad
It routes though Tor (a very old one from 2020 too!), but it is not Tor Browser.
You must be cognizant of such and I recommend avoiding non-encrypted connections (HTTP).
