How do I turn off double-spacing in Mail

Whenever I compose a message in Mail, if I hit the return key, it skips down two lines at one time. How do I get a single space?

This is present in Leopard 10.5.2
Hello there,
Let me understand something first:
*Double Spaced*
Line 1
Line 2
*Single Spaced*
Line 1
Line 2
That being said,
I created an Email message that was double spaced. Viewed the RAW source of the Email and created an HTML document from the HTML source and viewed it in Safari. Its double spaced in Safari! It's possible that the HTML from the RAW source is the problem surrounding the lack of Single-Spacing. See for yourself...
<html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; =
-webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><span class=3D"Apple-style-span" =
style=3D"font-family: arial; "><pre class=3D"WMmessagebody" =
style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; =
margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 16px; font-size: 1.15em; font-family: =
arial, verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 1.6em; overflow-x: auto; =
overflow-y: auto; ">Test 1</pre><pre class=3D"WMmessagebody" =
style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; =
margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 16px; font-size: 1.15em; font-family: =
arial, verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 1.6em; overflow-x: auto; =
overflow-y: auto; ">Test 2</pre><pre class=3D"WMmessagebody" =
style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; =
margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 16px; font-size: 1.15em; font-family: =
arial, verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 1.6em; overflow-x: auto; =
overflow-y: auto; ">Test 3</pre><pre class=3D"WMmessagebody" =
style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; =
margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 16px; font-size: 1.15em; font-family: =
arial, verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 1.6em; overflow-x: auto; =
overflow-y: auto; ">Test 4</pre>
</body></html
Perhaps Apple is enforcing some kind of standard. So, as of right now, I have no work around.

How do I get rid of the "Undelete" function in iCloud mail?

Hi bits1,
If you wish to have your email be unrecoveralbe after moving it to the Trash in iCloud, you can use the steps described in this article -
iCloud: Delete email
Specifically -
Erase messages immediately and permanently
You can have iCloud Mail permanently and immediately erase messages when you delete them, instead of storing them in the Trash for 30 days.
Choose Preferences from the Action pop-up menu in the sidebar.
In the General pane, deselect “Move deleted messages to,” then click Done.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sincerely,
Brett L

How can I turn off the delivery of mail when I turn on the program. I want it wait until I click the get mail button before it brings the mail over

I do not want the program to bring over my mail until I click the get mail button. I look at my mail on my providers site and delete the item I do not want to look at before going to Thunderbird to actually read it. And I do not want to receive any mail that might come to me until I can determine if I want to read it first.

Disable 'Check for new messages at startup' in your Account Settings.
