Email being moved

This is an example of another happening.

While reading and looking at an email with a video the email vanished - it disappeared from the screen while watching. !!!!!!!
It should be noted that the email was address to me. g@woodblockart.ca
I put a search in for the person who sent it. It showed up in my Marnie's (3eagles) mailbox. I opened .... It worked fine.
See the screen shot showing the location is in fact Marnie's mailbox.


I then dragged the file back to my mailbox.... (WoodArt) and opened it.... It worked fine. I opened it several times and it did not vanish or go to Marnie's mailbox. This next screen shot shows the location and that it was addressed to me at WoodArt. It clearly shows my address g@woodblockart.ca


I am totally mystified .

Of course I’m not sure what’s happening there, but given that the email is not actually being deleted or moved leads me to think that the culprit may be your hands. Try reading your emails with your hands completely off the mouse/trackpad or keyboard and see if that eliminates this. What I suspect is happening is that an accidental tap is either changing the focus window or activating some other command (I had something like this happen to me when using a mouse with Safari — unconscious tapping on the mouse as I read caused pages to go backwards or forwards to my bewilderment until I figured out what was happening ... this was just tapping the surface not “clicking” anything).

We have found out what, why and how.
It seems that when Marnie (The Finger) is working with the Mail program and cleaning house on here computer, she would toss away emails that did not interest her. If I was look at the same email on my computer it would disappear.
So our computers are as one..... something like Marnie and I, who celebrate the 60th year.
I would like not to have this happen.... not the 60th.... but the mail apps be independent of each other.posting.php?mode=reply&f=4&t=790#
