In this article, we will explain Mailbird's Quick Reply feature. This feature allows you to reply to an email directly from the same window that you are reading it in, without having to open a separate reply window.

This is especially useful when you only need to send a short response, since you can reply quickly and continue working through your inbox.

To use Quick Reply, simply open the email you would like to respond to and then do one of the following:

  • Press r or a on your keyboard.
  • Click on the left-facing reply arrow, as shown below.

You can then type your reply directly underneath the email, making it faster to respond without leaving the message view.
