Delete Emails

[david666]

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.

[vitriol]

Drag it straight to the bin.

yup that works

[david666]

As soon as i highlight (click it) it justs opens,i dont want to look at it,i just want to delete it without opening it.

[Rik]

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

[david666]

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

[vitriol]

Click and hold, drag to bin

[david666]

nope it still opens the email

[vitriol]

weird., that works for me, it doesn't open it.

Aha just sorted it had to go to "personal settings" and turn off "Show preview pane".Many thx anyway.

[vitriol]

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.
