I've installed the Samsung email app on my new Samsung Galaxy Tab S9
and configured two email accounts - both of which can send and receive
email, so the accounts are working OK.

I notice that the Email icon (and the associated text "Email") on the
home screen constantly moves slightly from side to side among the
rectangular grid that all the app icons are constrained to follow.

Interesting. I'm posting this with a Samsung Galaxy Tab S9FE (the cheaper model of yours) and it didn't come with a Samsung email app. I didn't notice until now since I use Gmail and the Gmail app did come already installed. (Google: "Take that Samsung") But I checked in the Samsung store and it's there for download so all is not lost if I ever get pissed at Google. Bottom line, I'm not curious enough to download it to see if it does what yours does, sorry. Suggestion if you can't fix it, get another email app, there are sure lots more out there...

I was surprised that the Samsung email app was not pre-installed (eg
with an icon in the Samsung folder on the desktop) as it was on my
present phone, a Samsung Galaxy A54, and my previous one which was also
a Samsung Galaxy of some model from a few years ago. Since I'm used to
this app on my phone, I chose it for the tablet as well. I'm sure there
are other apps which are better.

Are you sure the Samsung email app was not pre-installed was
pre-installed on your A54 and the unknown earlier one? I have a A51 and
it didn't (and doesn't)have the Samsung email app.

I wonder if Samsung have decided (or been coerced) not to pre-install
their own browser and email client, and let people decide which app to
use, rather like Microsoft had to unbundle Windows Mail / Windows Live
Mail, and Internet Explorer, and let people chose which programmes they wanted.

My A51 *does* have the Samsung Internet browser pre-installed.
