Deleting Your Mail

To mark a message for deletion, use the d (mh-delete-msg) command. A `D' is placed by the message in the scan window, and the next message is displayed. If the previous command had been p, then the next message displayed is the message previous to the message just deleted. If you specify a prefix argument, you will be prompted for a sequence (see section Using Sequences) to delete (for example, C-u d frombob RET). The x command actually carries out the deletion (see section Finishing Up). C-d (mh-delete-msg-no-motion) marks the message for deletion but leaves the cursor at the current message in case you wish to perform other operations on the message.
