In IPADOS26 when you double tap an email in the InBox, it opens another window and displays the email in full screen mode. I can’t figure out how to close the window and redisplay the InBox. Any help is appreciated. My current solution is to close the email app and reopen it. This action is not acceptable.

Original Title: Opening emails in a full screen
iPad Air
You can swipe up from the bottom to bering up the Dock tap on the mail App to bring up the Window manager and select the main Mail app window from the thumbnails, or you can swipe down from the top of the screen to bring down the menu bar, and then use the colored bubbles to reduce or close the email entirely.
You can also use the Window menu from the menu bar, to Minimize, close or exit full screen.
Or you can drag the corners of the window to reduce it from full screen.
In multitasking and gestures ‘full screen apps’ was selected and your suggestions did not work. I changed the setting to ‘windowed apps’ and when I adjust the full screen email to a size slightly smaller, an oval with red, yellow, and green dots appears. When I tap on the oval, it expands so that the dots become active icons. I tap on the yellow dot and the window disappears. That oval should also appear on the full screen.
How do I close full screen emails on iPad Air with iPadOS 26?
