    Apple Mail - Long Email Chains & Finding the Latest Mail

    I'm not sure if this is just me... it may well be that I'm missing a setting, but whenever I have a long back and forth email chain with someone, it seems to get increasingly difficult to find the latest message in the long chain. The message preview might show "message from Jim today at...

    Upgrading to Sonoma vanished my color flags on emails in Mail app

    I've long used Apple's Mail app on my Macs, not without gripes, but it has general done the job. One feature I came to rely upon was the little colored flags that I could use to flag individual emails that I wanted to find easily. But it seems like when I updated my MacOS to Sonoma, the Mail app...

    Thinking of switching to Mail

    Calendar invitations in Monterey?

    Is it so, that calendar invitations from Mail can't be passed to Calendar automatically in Monterey, like it used to work before? All I get is "Siri Suggestions" in Mail (and they are on in Preferences/Siri Suggestions/Mail), but that leads to that I have to manually click every suggestion for...

    Unexplained background activity from mail app after updating to iOS 14.7

    I updated on Saturday, and under my batter usage, the mail app was coming up as 15m background activity, which I am assuming is separate from background app refresh, as that is disabled. The odd thing is, I didn't have the mail app open, and I don't have any email accounts added to it. I have...

    Mail App - view attachments as icons?

    Is there any way I can setup the mail app or the Big Sur OS itself, so that the attachments, be that photo, or a pdf containing a photo remains as a thumbnail? I can't seem to figure out a way to do this. This is how it looks now.
