Using Apple Mail on my MBPro running Sonoma 14.5. i expand the thread with VO SPACE. I then VO arrow down to the first mesage in the thread. When I finish reading it, if i want to delete it, I use the delete key on the sixpack of my Magic Keyboard. This will send me to the bottom of the thread instead of moving me to the next message.
I recently tried turning Cursor Tracking OFF and using CMD Option sixpack delete. With Cursor Tracking OFF, you get a slightly more reliable response. I didn't quite understand some of the original suggerstions above in this thread. I'll reread them and see if i can make sense. I am NOT using iOS. I don't have any problems on my phone. z On Thursday, May 30, 2024 at 8:23:11 AM UTC-5 eire...@gmail.com wrote: > I got lost.
