Re: [Gmail-Users] keyboard shortcut to Trash?

[Zack (Doc)]

When you hit "?" to see the list of shortcuts it's the 8th one down on the right.  I think it's # by default, but I use the lab to change the keys and have turned mine into "d".

Is there a keyboard shortcut to Trash? If so, I'm not seeing it in the list of keyboard shortcuts, even when I open that list in a separate window. (OS is Win XP on one computer, Win 7 on another - browser is IE 8)

 

I like some of the keyboard shortcuts in Gmail. The absence of a shortcut to Trash would be a minor thing, but still - there are times when it would be convenient to have a keyboard shortcut to Trash.

    There is, but I don't remember what it was before I used a lab to change it. It was some key combination that I found awkward, so I just changed it to "d". Hitting "?" will brig up the list. I tried to see what it was, but D'Oh! - it only shows what I changed it to. Delete and Archive ore pretty uch the only shortcuts I use.

Bill, you meant a shortcut to switch your view into the trash?  The keyboard shortcut for go to label (for me it's G then L, but I may have changed that) will work... type GL then trash... auto-fill will complete it prior to you typing the whole world most likely.

 Yes, the "#" key will send an email to Trash, as will the "e" key - but that's not what I'd like to do. There are times when I'd like to go back to Trash either (1) to review an email from the past month which I had sent to Trash, or (2) to be sure that an important email hasn't wound up in Trash rather than in my Inbox.

 

From the replies so far, my guess is that there isn't a keyboard shortcut to Trash, unless I want to send an email to that location. Thanks again for your replies.
