How can I delete junk mail from Gmail

This is driving me crazy. I have defined my Gmail account as IMAP in my Mail app. However there is a mailbox with the name All Mail but no Inbox. How can I just see valid messages and how can I mark messages as junk and remove them from All Messages and never see any messages from these junk senders again? For example JC Penney sends about one message a day and I have to manually delete them. I've looked at the Gmail settings via webmail and haven't found a way to get rid of them.

You could enable Mail's filter as well if you want.  If you do so, I suggest you tell Mail to use Gmail's Spam folder as Mail's Junk folder.  Do this by selecting the Gmail Spam folder, then go to the mail menu bar under the "Mailbox" menu "Use This Mailbox For" -> "Junk".  This way, when you mark a mail as junk within Apple Mail, it will move to the Gmail spam folder, thus telling Gmail it is spam.
Alternatively, you could use Rules to kick out some of those mail messages you routinely get particularly if they always come from the same e-mail or have the similar subjects.

  • How can I delete e-mails from same e-mail address from 2 different computers at same time.

    I would like to be able to delete my e-mails from home and office at the same time. Now I have to delete at home and when I get to work the e-mails have to be deleted again. Would like to get both computers in act as one for this. Double work so I don't even bother opening from home on my Thunderbird account. My GMAIL account works fine for this, but not Thunderbird.
    thank you in advance,
    Brian

    For this to work you need an email account that is IMAP enabled and the email account setup in Thunderbird on both computers as IMAP. If you are using POP protocol in any of these places it will not work.
    Comparing GMAIL to Thunderbird is not even a comparison. GMAIL is an email provider and Thunderbird is email client software. Client software runs on your computer and helps you manage the actual email accounts that you have with an email provider.

  • How can I delete e-mails from one IPad without removing them from other IPads on same icloud? I'ved tried switching off mail sync on all devices but this only works when deleting on IPhone

    We have several portable devices and a mini mac on our system and have found that if we delete an email on one device it is removed from others.
    We don't want this, but at the same time we need to keep our devices clear of clutter.
    It was suggested that switch off the sync mail switch in settings - Icloud, but this only works on IPads & Ipods
    anybody got any better ideas ??

  • TS3992 on iPad: How can I delete my Mail storage from my iCloud backup?

    on iPad: How can I delete my Mail storage from my iCloud backup?

    Did anyone ever provide a resolution, because I am having the same problem.
    My iCloud backup said yesterday that over 500 MB was being used by the Mail portion of the backup. So I went into iCloud.com, deleted all of the mail in my Sent Mail folder, then emptied the trash entirely. When I did that, it got worse; it said that 1.2 GB of the iCloud backup was taken up by the Mail backup. That doesn't make any sense. That is actually the opposite of what was supposed to happen.
    Today, it is back to saying that Mail takes up 609.4 MB of space in the backup, but there is next-to-nothing in any of my iCloud email folders. What is going on?
    Any suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

  • How can I delete an attachment from a received email but save the message?

    Hi all, how can I delete an attachment from a received email but save the message?*

    Over the years this issue crops up again and again. Here are the cases I know about:
    Case 1 - it simply doesn't work
    I have a message in my inbox with a jpeg of about 300Mb. Select message, choose option "remove attachment" which is not greyed out, and it does not work.
    Case 2 - it works if you save the message first
    I move the message from the inbox to a mail box. Open the mailbox (select), select the message, choose option "remove attachment", result: the attachment is removed, a small text file is added and an error appears in the message "missing plug-in". The message size is reduced from 300Mb to a few bytes.
    Case 3 - the option "remove attachment" is greyed out.
    I've googled this at least 10 times and read all the advice about editing various files from the library and all the other hacks. The simple truth here is that the user should not be inconvenienced by such inappropriate behaviour. We're not used to this from Apple any more, not since OS X. Even Windows does this stuff painlessly. In fact this kind of function is something that Outlook and Exchange do incredibly well. If they didn't the corporate world would have ground to a halt.
    My point: the remove attachment option should work all the time and should be redesigned. Right-click + save as + delete in the message would be a hundred times easier.

  • How Can i delete Suggestions mail when i write 1 mail?

    How Can i delete Suggestions mail when i write 1 mail?

    Don't worry about your english, my Italian is probably even worse! If your applications and other data are synced as they should in iTunes, photos from the camera roll are imported to the computer, music is all in iTunes and calendar and contacts are synced to a supported application, the only thing you will lose is wi-fi settings (they can be re-done) and applicaiton data, such as scores, etc. After restoring as new, sync the content back. You will not be able to restore from a backup as the addresses will exist in the backup and just return.

    I tried to use the attached command through TERMINAL :

    sqlite3: Error: too many options: "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';"
    Use -help for a list of options.

    I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job).  What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
    http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
    Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software.  (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.)  The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance.  I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers.  When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install.  We did!  But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
    So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

  • How can i delete some books from ibook?

    How can i delete some books from ibook? It says: this book can't be opened. The book is corrupt. I can't open and I can't delete it

    I was unable to delete a book sample from my iPhone 5s running iOS 7.  This seems to be what worked for me.  I went to the Library and clicked "edit" in upper right side of the screen.  I then tapped one time on the book I wanted to remove and a blue check appeared at the bottom right corner of that book (presumably you could tap several at a time)  Anyway, when the blue check is on the book, you will see in the upper left of the screen the word "Delete" (mine was in red) I clicked that and then a confirming dialog came up from the bottom of the screen with the choices of "delete" or "cancel".  I chose "delete" and the book was gone.  Hope this helps.
