How do you delete mail in 5.0 without opening

On my ipad mail has an edit option which allows me to delete mail withuot opening.  Mail 5.0 on my imac does not have this option.  How do I delete mail here without opening?

Right-click on the message and select delete.  There are probably other ways to do this, but the right-click is what I do.

  • How do I delete mails on my Z10 without getting them deleted in the mail server

    Hi Friends,
    Earlier in OS7, before you delete a mail, you would get a caution message asking if the mail is supposed to be deleted on you handset only or both on handset and mailbox server. I do not see this option now in Z10 and when i Delete the mail on the phone, the same mail gets deleted in my mail server as well. 
    AM i missing something ??
    Thank you 

    if using Exchange Active sync, you see a portion of the message aka headers and only when replying or frwarding does it down load the whole message.
    POP will have all of the messages on device and with IMAP only 30 days worth will be on it.

  • Help! How can I delete mail on my iPhone without it deleting on my Mac?

    hey everybody!
    so, i used to be able to delete e-mails on my iphone (through my gmail account) without having them get deleted from my inbox on my mac's mail app. however, lately, this is not the case. i would like to be able to delete certain messages so that they won't have to stay on my phone but i still need them on my mac.
    does anyone have any solutions to this problem?
    thanks!

    I need the same answer applicable to Microsoft Exchange on a pc. When deleting email from the iphone it is deleting it from everywhere. I need it to stay on the laptop so that the laptop "controls". I just switched over from a blackberry and there was a email control function where you could tell the berry to defer to the laptop when deleting.
    I also having an issue in that my "sent" emails are not appearing on the laptop - anywhere. I cannot find a location to alter this.
    Please advise and thank you.

  • How do you delete songs on your iPhone without using iTunes on your computer? Swiping to the left or right won't work on mine.

    I've tried deleting my songs but it didn't work. It worked last time. Sliding it wont work anymore. I've spent hours trying to figure out how to delete songs.

    Swiping left to right or right to left should work if you're in the right place.
    For example, try it in Music > Songs (button in lower right).

    You may be right about the trick no longer working. I have only used it once or twice and that was just as an experiment. I will quit posting the link now if it no longer works.
    This no longer works?????
    From Destef_12
    You actually can:
    it took me weeks of research to figure out finally how to decode this yet another secretive secrets of apple. there is a perfect way of deleting ALL emails at once without jailbreaking your iphone or ipad...and here it is:
    Open Inbox>>EDIT >> check/select the top message, it will highlight the move button >>press and hold the move button and uncheck the message that you had checked earlier >> lift all your fingers off from the ipad screen and leave it alone. wait until all your messages pile up on the right hand portion of the screen (in ipad). iphone will give you the actual number of emails it has selected for the action. now they are just waiting for your command to be moved ALL at once. >> choose trash to delete all of them or any other folder where u want to move them, like one piece. remember this will replicate your action on the server so u will ACTUALLY move them or delete them on the server and not just the ipad.
    once you have moved all messages to trash you can either leave them there for the scheduled cleaning or empty it right away by doing this: go to trash folder and click edit. the delete all button shows up at the bottom of the screen. hit it! you r done!
    if you do not see effects of your actions on the server make sure you have enabled Your email accounts for such actions.
    tips:
    1. please give enough time (could take upto several minutes depending the number of emails to be moved) for the emails to be selected for the move. your screen will become unresponsive while all emails are being packaged. once emails are ready, in ipad, you will see them zoomed out on the right hand side of the screen, and in iphone you will see the message showing you the actual number of messages that have been selected.
    2. avoid purging very large number of emails, the mail app might freeze or crash. if your inbox has thousands of emails change your sync settings in mail settings to fill lesser number of emails in you inbox

  • How do you delete a VIP mailbox from the mail app?

    How do you delete a VIP mailbox from the mail app?

    From Mail help:
    Make a sender a VIP
    To keep track of messages you receive from especially important people, make them VIPs in Mail. You can have up to 100 VIPs.
    To make someone a VIP, move the pointer to the left of the sender’s name in the message header and click the star that appears. You can also move the pointer over the sender’s email address, click the arrow that appears, and choose “Add to VIPs” from the pop-up menu.A mailbox for the VIP is added to the Favorites bar. For example, if you make Dad a VIP sender, his messages are displayed in a VIP mailbox titled Dad.
    To remove VIP status from a sender, click the VIP’s star in a message. The star is removed and the sender’s VIP mailbox is removed from the Favorites bar.
    If a VIP has several email addresses in Contacts, messages from any of those addresses will appear in the VIP’s mailbox.
    If you use iCloud Contacts, your VIPs are available on your other Mac computers that use iCloud Contacts and have OS X Mountain Lion installed.
    So to remove a VIP mailbox, you would have to remove all its people, and then exit mail.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

    How do you delete all contacts on iPhone 4S? I have tried to sync and end up w/duplicates and now triplicates. 4,000 contacts have now turned into 12,000 contacts!! I "upgraded" to Lion and hate it - it was so much easier before. I managed to delete on MacBook (to start from scratch there), but cannot delete from iphone or ipad. I am so frustrated! Please help

    Hi Cynthia!  If you are syncing from something like Gmail you can go into the iPhones Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn off contacts. It will ask you if you want to delete them from your phone - just click delete.  Exit Settings and turn phone off by power button (not all the way OFF).  Then re-open Settings>mail, Contacts, Calendars>(account you are syncing)> and turn Contacts back on - This is where you need to be careful - When you turn contacts back on you will be prompted to delete or save the contacts already on your phone. CLICK DELETE.  You should now have only your synced contacts on your phone!  Hope it helps!
