Gmail shortcuts...

When I'm in a gmail email and I press "menu + e" on the phys keyboard, it performs some odd operation. The email no longer shows up on my phone, and on my laptop's gmail it's in some sort of non-inbox netherworld (it's searchable, but it's not inboxed, not archived, not trashed, not spammed... none of that).

Anybody know what the deal is there? Or even better, does anybody feel like compiling a list of gmail shortcuts? Now that I'm banishing emails by pressing random combos, I'm sort of skittish to map it all out myself. Ones that I know work:


In email
menu + r --reply
menu + a --reply all
menu + y --archive
menu + k --newer
menu + j --older
menu + s --add star
menu + f --forward
menu + l --go to label
menu + v --assign label
menu + m --mute

In inbox
menu + u --refresh
menu + c --compose
 

In email

menu + r --reply
menu + a --reply all
menu + y --archive
menu + k --newer
menu + j --older
menu + s --add star
menu + f --forward
menu + l --go to label
menu + v --assign label
menu + m --mute

In inbox
menu + u --refresh
menu + c --compose


FYI, gmail shortcuts work WITHOUT the menu key. Try all those again just pushing the letter key. Maybe pushing the menu key simultaneously is what is giving you problems.
