What does it mean to “mute” an email conversation?
If you’re subscribed to a mailing list, you might receive messages in a very long, ongoing conversation. If you’d rather not receive anymore messages in that conversation, you can “mute” the conversation to keep all future additions out of your Inbox. To mute a conversation, select it in your Inbox or open it, and then click Mute under More Actions at the top of your Mail window. Note: The mute feature works only for messages you received as part of a mailing list. If the message was sent directly to your email address (your address appears in the To or CC field), you can’t use the mute feature.
