Title: Delete Emails
Post by: david666 on Sep 02, 2008, 16:12:36
Hi all
 
  This maybe a silly question but how do i delete an email from my inbox without reading it? I use the free idnet ones (webmail.idnet.com).

Highlight it and hit the delete button (red circle with diagonal bar), afaik, David.

It shouldn't open without a double click, I think, David, but tbh, I don't use webmail. Try dragging as Vit suggests.

Hmm cannot drag and drop the email,as emails open with one-click.

My preview pane is enabled and it still doesn't show when I click on the mail (hold the mouse button down) and then drag to the bin,

No matter, glad your sorted.

I hate Preview Panes, and switching them off is the first thing I do with any mail client.
