Default Delete From New Mail Alerts?

Is it possible to delete messages from both the New Mail Alert window and
also the Open window (when clicking Open in the New Mail Alert the
highlighted single message that will appear)
I receive alot of email and it would be far easier if I could delete from
this feature rather than having to go back into the Message pane find the
messages and delete from there. Thank you

Default Delete From New Mail Alerts?

Hi, no that's what I find baffling, there is no Delete. I only have Edit
Rule, Open and Close ...nor is there any option to Delete or even Reply if I
select Open to bring up message in its own window...I have also found a
similar problem while attaching thru Photoshop: I will select from the Edit
menu Attach to eMail and I get the same window with no option to Send...only
Save, Save Attachment or Print. I tried closing the message and I am prompted
to either Send or Save...I tried saving and I couldn't find the message
later.. end up having to Save to desktop then Open mail and create an all
new message, browsing for attachment, etc.......thank you

Default Delete From New Mail Alerts?

I just checked when an alert popped up here and there was a delete X in the
lower left hand corner of the alert. Just to be sure we're using the same
terminology an alert is a small blue window that appears to give
notification of a new email and it fades away on its own after a number of
seconds.

Hi:
Unfortunately no little "X". These are the preferences I have set up:under
Adv Email OptionsWhen New Items ArriveShow Envelope in Notification Area
set to 7 sec/20% transparency...however. this kind of Alert NEVER happens. I
always get the pop up dialog box with New Item Alerts and the problems
already listed...am I missing some Preference? thnx

If the items get moved from the Inbox then the alert won't show up.

that's ok; the original issue is still what i'd like to resolve...I do get
the New Item Alerts message as outlined previously but it seems to defeat the
purpose of it if I can only view messages, no Delete No replying. I have to
close out and return to Outlook's "main" window and do all tasks from there.
Is this all the feature allows and I could be misunderstsanding its use?
Thanks

Hmmm, I'm going to have to take a look at the new items dialog since I've
never used it.
