Guys, I’m using an M1 MacBook Pro running Sonoma 14.5.1. I’ve discovered what I think is something weird about Apple Mail when it comes to reading long threads. If one expands a long thread, the expectation should be that you start reading from the beginning of the thread and delete messages as you finish them, if that’s what you want. Each successive deletion should move the reader to the next message in chronological order, however, my experience has consistently been that deleting messages sends the reader hither, thither and yawn. While there seems to be no real exact pattern to what happens, I find that I am either sent several messages down the thread, or, I’m sent to the very top of the thread. The only way I know things are wrong is that I have enough vision to understand that I’ve been bounced somewhere other than where I should be.
It used to be that CMD Option Delete, (where Delete is on the Sixpack, would deliver the desired result. But now, using Cmd Option Delete removes the message such that it can’t be restored with Cmd Z. Further, using this method doesn’t send the message to the trash. I went looking for a message I removed in this fashion and it was nowhere to be found. So, I can’t use this deletion method anymore. I developed a case through Apple Accessibility and we’ve determined that this is a mail thing, not an accessibility thing, because the behavior is identical regardless of whether Vo is ON or OFF. Does anyone here have the same experience? Does anyone here have a reliable KS for deleting a message from a mail thread while being certain of moving to the next message in said thread?
