How can I find my email address?
Find your email address by going to the Email application and pressing + N to open the Compose screen. Your
full email address is displayed in the From field.
How can I discard more than one email at a time?
You can empty all the emails in a folder with one menu command (with a folder highlighted, open the menu and
select Empty...). But remember this command will empty all emails in a folder. If you only some of the emails in
a folder to be discarded, you’ll have to either move the emails you want saved to another folder (could use the
system folder “Saved”), or else discard the messages one-by-one.
