Here are all the ways you can format your reply:
- Choose a font
- Add bold, italics, or underlined text
- Include a bulleted list or a numbered list
- Add a blockquote

Archiving the conversation while replying
If the reply (or forward) you're sending will close the conversation and no further actions are needed, you can archive the conversation as you send the reply. Click the drop-down menu next to the Send button to access a Send & Archive button:
If you aren't ready to archive the conversation, just click the Send button instead.
Trashing your reply before sending
If you’ve started to write a reply but then decide you’d rather not send it, click the trash can icon below your reply to delete it:
When you trash a draft, it will be moved to your Trash folder. You can leave it there, or permanently delete it later.
