Organize your mail

Star, archive, mark as read or unread, report spam, and delete conversations.

Everything you do here happens at your email provider too, so your other email apps show the same change.

Actions on a conversation

Use the toolbar above an open conversation:

ActionWhat it does
Star / Remove starMarks the conversation as important. Starred conversations are in Starred.
Mark as read / Mark as unreadChanges whether it shows as new.
ArchiveTakes it out of the inbox. It stays in Archive and in search.
Move to trashMoves it to Trash.
Report spamMoves it to Spam. In Spam, Not spam moves it back.
Move to inboxMoves a conversation from Archive or Trash back to the inbox.

Delete forever

For mailboxes connected with Other email, Spam and Trash have Delete forever, which permanently deletes a conversation from the mail server. Mira asks you to confirm first, because this cannot be undone.

Gmail and Outlook mailboxes do not have Delete forever in Mira. Google and Microsoft empty Trash on their own schedule.

Work on many conversations at once

Select the checkboxes next to the conversations, or press ⌘ A (Ctrl A on Windows) in the list to select them all. The toolbar then applies its actions to every selected conversation. Press Escape to clear the selection.
