Hi again Kristeen. Well, I discovered that it doesn't always work. I got it to work the first time, but when I tried it again, it didn't work. In fact, it's real strange. It interacts and then says dimmed, even though it's still there and everything. I got the space D to work to delete an email. Say, let me know if you get the same result.
