I have an email that starts the dreaded color wheel spinning
indefinitely. How can I trash it? I can't select and delete or drag it
to deleted folder. What to do?
thanks,

I'm not sure if this will work, but...

Go to the View menu. Select Preview Pane and then, when the submenu pops
up, select None. Then select the offending email and hit delete.

Try this:
Select a DIFFERENT message first, that you also intend to delete.
The while the other message is hi-lited, hold the Apple key down, click
on the offending message.
Both messages are now selected... Click delete.
