If the from e-mail address does not correspond to any account, contact, lead in the system, then the e-mail will be displayed in the From column. There should be a button [Add] next the e-mail address which you can then use to create a new lead or contact from this e-mail address. Alternatively, if the e-mail is from an existing account, contact, or lead in the system, but the e-mail address has not been entered into the system, then go to the page for that account, contact, or lead, and create a new e-mail address for him or her. Then the system will automatically associate all outstanding e-mails with this account, contact, or lead.

If you have the authority to change the owner of the activities, there will be a checkbox next to the owner, and you can change the owner and click on [Reassign] at the bottom to reassign the emails. You can also use the [Delete] button at the bottom to delete all the selected e-mails.

There is a toggle button for [All Assigned to Me] and [Owned by Me Only] which allows you to switch the list between any email activity where you are a participant ("All Assigned to Me") and where you are the assignee/owner only (Owned by Me Only.)
