Swipe to the Left...

A swipe to the right now goes 'back' to the previous page. They likely changed it to avoid accidentally triggering that when you just want to delete something. It's not even a big deal to me.

Thats something I dont like :[
If you turn off that gesture does it allow any direction swipe to delete?

How can you turn off that gesture?

No. While in the inbox, a right swipe enters that messages body.

Not for me. It's a new system-wide gesture that I imagine will get implemented in many other apps going forward.

I see what is happening. Anything short of the far left to right swipe is registering as a push and entering the message body. That is not the case for the right to left. I can start at left of center and it still brings up 'delete'.

Actually you could swipe both ways on ios6. Just get use to it. Its not that difficult. I believe in you.
Yup, right to left was always there, and I actually used that most of the time not even really paying attention that I might be able to do it the other way (which is good I guess since it's not an option in iOS 7 so far it seems). Dismissing a banner notification on top of the screen was also right to left in iOS 6 and earlier.
