Using the Mail App

Organizing your mail

After you've used the Mail app for a while, your inbox can start to become cluttered with old messages. You can keep your inbox organized by moving messages to folders or deleting messages you no longer need.

To move a message to a folder:

  1. Locate and select the message you wish to move.

To delete messages permanently, you'll need to access the Deleted folder and then delete the messages again.
