    Delete E Mail

    I have prewview pane unchecked. I hold the Control key down and go thru my
    mail and highlight all that I don't want and delete them all at once. Then I double left click on the one I want to read and it opens in a separate window.
    Then I delete it and go to the next one in my inbox and do the same.

    Hope this is some help. Joe R.

    joeskys--A possible problem with your suggestion is that a new, undesireable email may come in while you reading the earlier ones. Then when you delete the last good email, you open up the new baddie.

    What about just closing the E-mail then deleting it--nothing will open up that way

    paul43--Yes, that is the safest way, but what a nuisance.

    Yes I agree Welshjim. It's the safest way, and the one I currently use, and it is a pain. :)
