As the title suggests, I think it’ll be more logial if the delete key and/or backspace key deletes emails…

Go to PREFERENCES, section SHORTCUTS, and set the Trash shortcut to be the delete key! :wink:

Yes, the default behaviour on MacOS and Windows differs. On MacOS, mail goes to trash while on Windows mail is being archived. I prefer the MacOS behaviour

On the index page, can we delete email the cursor is on without selecting it first? That requirement of selecting a single email before I can delete with the keyboard shortcut is a carry-over behavior from Gmail which IMHO is quite bad. It double the keys I have to press when I go down the list to triage out the low-hanging emails.
