Delete, move, or mark multiple messages. While viewing a list of messages, tap Edit. Select
some messages, then choose an action. If you make a mistake, shake iPod touch immediately
to undo.
Organize your mail with mailboxes. Tap Edit in the mailboxes list to create a new one, or rename
or delete one. (Some built-in mailboxes can’t be changed.) There are several smart mailboxes,
such as Unread, that show messages from all your accounts. Tap the ones you want to use.
Recover a deleted message. Go to the account’s Trash mailbox, open the message, then
tap and move the message. Or, if you just deleted it, shake iPod touch to undo. To see deleted
messages across all your accounts, add the Trash mailbox. To add it, tap Edit in the mailboxes
list and select it from the list.

around if you need them. Turn on Archive Mailbox in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars >
account name > Account > Advanced. To delete a message instead of archiving it, touch and
hold , then tap Delete.

tap More to move, forward, reply, ag, mark as read, or move it to the Junk folder.

Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > account name > Account > Advanced.
