Re: Email - help needed please!

You cannot see the rubbish bin if you open the email. It only appears - on the right hand side - of the email inbox list!

Trying to attach photos/documents is a short cut to madness!

Why, oh why cannot they leave things alone!

Re: Email - help needed please!

Not too sure if gmail will be the same on my Mac using Safari as it would on Windows 10 but I have been using this for a while and experience no problems. The box on the left hand of each email in the inbox if ticked will show various icons along the top of that window, including a waste bin for deleting emails. You just tick the box then click on the waste bin icon.

When composing an email there are various icons along the bottom of the window, including the one to attach files / photos. All the various options for composing the email such as bold, italic, underscore, text colour are there too.

Thought this might help, apologies if it doesn't.

My trashbin has still not put in an appearance !Just by chance I rightclicked to the right of a message and a box came up saying Delete , so I clicked on it and it did the business .
As I said earlier I only use that GMail a/c to back up my other account emails. I had over 400 to delete! Forgotten all about it really until this notice about M started.
I was even clever enough tonight to put M in the bottom bar on my PC as a Shortcut ! All pure luck I’m sure .
