I am stuck on flagged emails.

I am stuck on flagged emails. Can no longer select read or unread. The choice for something else is not available and it used to be before I selected flagged emails. How can I fix this?

Mac mini, macOS 10.15

Hi Karl,


I'll do my best to help you. I'll assume you are using Apple Mail on a Mac. Is this similar to the flagged email selection you made?



If this smart mailbox is selected, you will see all of the emails you have flagged in the next column to the right.


Your flagged emails are also viewable in the mailbox folders where you moved them (or in your inbox if you have not moved them).


One other possibility I am thinking of is this: Can you see the list of mailboxes on the left side of your screen in Mail? If not, click on the Mailboxes button in the very top left of the screen and that column will open.



I hope this helps. Please feel free to reply if these suggestions don't help and either me or another community member will be more than happy to help. Have a great day.


Chris.
