I thought I would revisit this again just now. I actually was able to delete some, both in Charter and in iCloud. Gmail is fine as its not in use.

Two I cannot remove from Charter are Spam and Sent Mail. I can live with this. I suppose I could go to the Charter site but maybe at a later date.

  I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

Since you mentioned "labels" I am thinking perhaps you are using Gmail.
There is a place in Gmail settings to hide a specific label from IMAP
folders. I can't remember if this is a standard option or one that needs
to be enabled in experimental mode.

I don't think there is a way to hide specific folders in the Mail
application, though you might be able to fudge things with creating
smart folders that meet your needs  and then closing the provider tree.


Best Wishes,

       Wonderful. That should do it nicely. Thanks.

       Another question that I came across while working in Mail . Email
    providers have their own labels for standard mailboxes, like Sent,
    Sent Messages, Sent Mail. I selected the labels I want in Mail
    preferences. Can I remove or at least hide the other labels? I got
    an error when I tried to remove one.

        In most applications that have a sortable table, you would go
        to  the
        table header with the "Go to Header" voiceOver command
        (vo-vertical bar
        or vo-shift-backslash) and then navigate to the date column and
        click it.

        In mail which has a "sort pop up button" this is a bit easier to do.
        Click the sort button and then move to the bottom of the list of
        sort
        options. There you will find Oldest on top or newest on top.

        Tata for now,
