Annoying swipe function on ipad email program When I go into my email program I sometimes accidentally touch an email and it swipes to the right and disappears. It appears that this is a way to delete messages quickly but it is a bit too quick for my liking and I want to get rid of it. Even more annoying is that I have set mail to ask if I want to delete but that doesn’t stop the messages doing the disappearing trick. Is there a way to stop this or is it just a bug that I have to put up with?

iPad email account swipe settings I’m using iPad 6th generation, OS 16.2, 128gig. I set up a 2nd gmail account. As I “swipe left” to delete a message (like I do with my primary gmail account) the swipe function of my 2nd account is set to “Archive” as the first of 3 options, the middle is “move” and the third is “more”. I have searched but can’t find the tool to change it. How do I change the first swipe function to “delete” so I can swipe once and automatically delete a email message rather than having to use the “move” option? Thanks Jeff

Swipe gestures for DELETE in iPad OS Mail I am having a hard time understanding why the Trash or Delete option is not available in settings when looking at options to swipe left or swipe right. It seems like a multi-step process to simply delete a message using this app. I really like the app overall and want to use it over Edison mail but it just doesn’t work well as it pertains to this basic function. Are there plans to add this option?
