How do I "delete all" emails at one time ??

I use POP3 email accounts. There isn't a slick way (that I can see) to select every email from your inbox and delete them. Has anyone come up with a solution for this ??
And please don't answer with: switch to an imap account.
iPhone 4s
Thanks!

I don't access an antiquated email account type, so I have nothing to complain about.
If Apple included a delete all at once option for an account's Inbox mailbox, the habitual whiners that did this by accident would come unglued.

Select a message, hold the move button, deselect the message while still holding the move button.

Bingo!

How do I delete all contacts (at one time) from i phone4

Somehow I have gotten mutilple listing in contacts. How do I delete all contacts from I phone and start over?

baprawski,
Is there a particular reason why you want to delete the contacts all at once? The only way you can delete all the contacts all one time would be to wipe the device. This will complete erase all data on the phone including the contacts.
You want to make sure you backup your device uisng the desktop manager. Once you perform the wipe you can then backup your contacts using the desktop manager and just make sure to uncheck the Contacts when backing up so they are not added back to your phone.

How do I delete many emails at one time

I just upgraded to ML and can no longer paint the messages and delete many at one time. I can only delete them one by one.Thanks.

you need to click on 1st message
release the mouse or trackpad click
press and hold SHIFT or CMD
and click again on another message
if you still have envelope instead of cursor you mouse or trackpad may have a problem.

How do I delete multiple emails at one time

I have a ton of emails that I don't need to keep on my iPad. Is there a way to delete everything at once without tapping each individual email? If not, can I just delete the accounts and then re-enter them?
Thanks,

You can do it from the Email app the way described by Japid, it's still not fast by any means at all. but, I believe that if you use Yahoo or Google, etc.......you can go to the site on Safari and log into your, say, Yahoo account from there. That should give you more & faster options for deleting groups of e-mails at a time. I know, I literally have tens of thousands on an account I've had for years. I should just delete it, but I'm unable to convince myself for some stupid reason, as if I'm going to miss some important message from a work mate I had 8 years and 2 jobs ago or something lame.

When uploading my email account it also uploaded over 6,000 emails that are on the aol server from over the years, how can I delete all but recent ones?

Unfortunately, there is no easy way. Delete just as you would any other message that you don't want. It's probably just as well that there is no universal deletion capability. I can see many of us committing a major "oops."

How do I delete ALL emails on Droid Turbo (pop3)?

I have a Droid Turbo, and love it. But I cannot figure out how to mass delete (all) emails from the phone. I use Pop3 to my email.
I know you can swipe individual emails to delete or press and hold on an email to select, then do the same individually to many and then delete, but I cannot find a "delete all" option like my previous Droid Maxx. Because I haven't been able to keep up with it, I have over 999 emails sitting in there with no way at the moment to delete them all unless I spend a few hours deleting each one, one by one.
Any help here?
Thanks.

That is extremely disappointing. If I delete the account from my phone, will it delete all the messages that way? I might have to find a way to delete and re-add the mail into the phone as the current amount of messages is a large bloat to the phone.
Also, where do I suggest this "delete all" be added to the phone? This was on the Droid Maxx and previous versions. It is odd they would remove an option that could cause extreme bloat.

How do i delete sent emails in one go?

How do i delete sent emails in one go? There must be a few thousand sent items in there with large attachments. Of course it would be silly to do it one by one, so whats the quicker solution?

You could always try the Mark All thing again for sorting. Do the same as before, for delete (come to think of it, do it before you Delete All, otherwise you'll have nothing to sort). Having Marked All, instead of Delete try Sort. Does this make any difference?

Is there any way to set red to green and then delete all that in one time?

Hi,experts
In our delta data load requests include lots of red status record, in the usual way , we must fix the red status to green and delete it one by one.
Is there any good way to set status red to green and then delete all that in one time instead of one by one?

hello,
yes there is ways to delete the requests in one time.
1) Note the bad request number
2) Go to SE16
3) Open table RSODSACTREQ. Filter the contents by that request number . There will be entries for that request . Delete that entries.
OR
4. Open table RSICCONT. There will be one entry for that request . Delete that entry
OR
5. Open Table RSMONICDP. Filter the contents by that request number . There will be 3-4 entries for that request depending on number of data packages in that request .Delete all those entries
Hope this helps

How do I delete all email messages in just one touch (delete all feature)?

Does anyone know how to perform a "delete all" in order to delete all email messages rather than going through each message one at a time to move from the inbox to the trash folder, then delete from the trash folder permanently? Currently, we seem to be able to only select one message at a time, rather than perform "Delete All".
I read in a forum post about the "Delete All" button being available only when pressing Edit in the Trash folder. Could someone please provide the sequence of steps to successfully delete all messages in one step? Thanks.
John Bottiger

It is not possible other than as described by yourself - singly to the Trash folder and then collectively from there if you so wish.

>> Open Inbox >> Edit >> Mark All >> Mark As Read
>> Open Inbox >> Edit >> Check/select the top message; it will highlight the move button.
>> Press and hold the move button and uncheck the message that you had checked earlier.
>> Lift all your fingers off from the ipad screen and leave it alone. Wait until all your messages pile up on the right hand portion of the screen (in ipad); iphone will give you the actual number of emails it has selected for the action. Now they are just waiting for your command to be moved ALL at once.
>> Choose trash to delete all of them or any other folder where u want to move them, like one piece. Remember this will replicate your action on the server so you will ACTUALLY move them or delete them on the server and not just the ipad.
Once you have moved all messages to the trash you can either leave them there for the scheduled cleaning or empty it right away by doing this: go to trash folder and touch Edit. The Delete All button shows up at the bottom of the screen. Hit it! You’re done!
