Q: Return to inbox after deleting an e-mail?

When I delete or move an e-mail, the next thing I see is the next e-mail in my inbox.  I want to return to the inbox, not to another e-mail.  How can I change this setting?  Hopefully what I am saying makes sense, and hopefully someone has a solution.  It really irritates the crap out of me.

    Hi I have the same issue but this is only if I use the search and not from the inbox directly

    and only from a Exchange mailbox not from Hotmail/Outlook

    Hey briscoedarling,

     

    To make sure we are on the same page, when you delete an email, you want to still see the Inbox and the list of all the emails within and not the actual message. To do that, stay in your Inbox and do not be in the email itself. Just swipe right on the email to bring up a menu to Flag or Trash the email. This will ensure that you are still in the Inbox and not be in the next email.

    Take care,

    No, that's not it at all.  And how can I read the e-mail while still in the inbox?

     

    Let's say I am reading an e-mail, and I delete that e-mail.  Once I delete the e-mail, I want the mail app to go back to the inbox where I can see all the e-mails in my inbox.  Instead, it goes directly to the next e-mail down in my inbox.  I don't want to go to another e-mail.  I want to go to the Inbox.  It is one of the most irritating things in the entire world.  Drives me nuts.

    I too have this problem someone can answer this. I want to return to Inbox after deleting a mail.

    Currently the mail app is moving to next email instead of that I want the app to move to inbox after deleting a email.

     

    is there any settings for this?
