Hi there

At the moment holding my finger on the subject line and then tapping 'open in new tab' is the only to open emails - This seems a bit long winded!

Similarly is it possible to delete emails from the subject line?

And having opened and read an email is possible to get to the next or previous email via a single tap of something?

Thanks for your help

Thunderbird is not optimized for using a touch screen. Here is a list of shortcuts but you need a keyboard for them. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts
