How do I mass delete email from Trash folder?

Is there an easy way to mass delete the emails from the trash folder?

In your settings>mail>account>advanced, there is a way you can set it to self delete after 1 day. This is the earliest setting to self delete the mails. If you need to delete all of them right away. Just open one of the mails and press the trash can icon at bottom. It automatically opens the next mail and you can just sit there thumbing the trash can until all are gone. Works for me, both ways.

Anyone know how to delete emails from trash folder?

I have hada Droid phone for about 6 months. When I delete emails from my inbox it goes to a "trash" file (similiar to trash file in Outlook). It is getting full. Any idea how to delete from trash folder. My wife also bought the same phone but she does not have a trash file. No one at our verizon store can answer my question as to how to delete from trash folder and don't seem to know how I have a trash folder on my email account.

How can i mass delete emails from my inbox?

Are there any tricks to deleting all of the messages from my inbox at once, without having to tap each message??
Thanks.

Go to the gear icon on the upper right; Click on "Rules". Make a rule that says, "If an email is from.... " and put in what emails you want deleted. I had a lot of emails that got forwarded mistakenly from another account--like 4,000! And I used this rule to move them all to Trash. The rule can be anything... All emails from "gmail", etc...
Hope this works for you!

TS3899 How can I mass delete emails from iPad?

I have a huge build-up in unread mail on my ipad mainly because I routinely read mail on my iMac.
Does anyone know how I can delete 1600 emails without doing so separatel

If you are on iOS 7 you can open the inbox, choose edit, then choose mark all, mark all as read. This will at least make your messages all become read as I assume they are on your Mac.
As far as deletion, there is no Delete All option in the Mail app. One way you can delete all is to log into your email account on the internet portal and clear off whatever emails you don't want form the email server there. If you are using a Mac, your CMD+A functions will usually work to help you complete this task quickly.
Once all the emails are removed form the server, on the iPad, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Tapyour email account and turn mail off (or delete account if there is no mail switch). Power cycle the iPad then go back to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and turn mail back on or add account if you deleted it before. This will make the iPad query the email server and pull down only those emails that are left on the server (if you didn;t delete them all).
I hope this helps!

Unable to delete email from trash bin. How do I do this? If I select and chose delete, it doesn't. What am I doing wrong? My grand daughte is using my iPad and I don't want her to see some of the mail there.

There are two ways that should work. When you are in the trash folder, you can swipe on the email in the list - left to right - and a red Delete button should pop up. Or you can select - Edit - at the top of the list of messages and then select the message and tap delete.
Not sure exactly how this works - but if you have restrictions enabled - especially since you let your grandchild use the device - that may be restricting what you can do in the mail app. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions. If you have it set to on - turn it off or see if you have mail restricted.

If you are using Apple's Mail app 6.5 is the latest version irrespective of what a previous poster says. It does sound though that you are using a gmail account online via a web browser. Please confirm and fill in missing information.

How do I retreive deleted email from months ago?

How do I retreive email that was deleted months ago and no longer available in the trash bin?

For anything gone several months ago it's just gone. There is a retrieval feature you have in your account but it only goes back two weeks or so for emails deleted from the Trash folder. You can see it by right-clicking on the Trash folder and then on "Recover Deleted Items".

LG Ally - deleting pop3 emails from trash folder

I have three pop3 email accounts set up on my LG Ally. All work great - however, deleting the all the emails in the trash folder is cumbersome. Is there a way to delete all the emails in the "trash folder" at one? I can only seem to delete them by tapping each email individually and then tapping delete. This is a really slow process.
Also, is there a way to adjust my pop3 email settings so that the trash folder is deleted automatically every so often?
Thank you!

There is not a delete all option to delete all the emails at once for the default email application. You also can not set a schedule to delete the trash folder. There are other email applications with more customization options on the Android Market Place.

How can I restore deleted emails from iCloud backup?

I have an Earthlink email account that never synced with the server before, so I went a little crazy deleting a bunch of emails. It wasn't until I checked my WebMail that I realized it deleted them from the server, too. I checked with Earthlink and they couldn't do anything for me. But I had an iCloud backup from yesterday that I tried to restore. Except the email account keeps syncing with the server and I'm back to where I started. Is there any way to retrieve this data? It's gotta still be in the backup, right?
Thanks,
Ann

If they were backed up, you can restore your phone from that previous backup. If they weren't backed up, you cannot restore them.

Retrieving deleted mail from trash folder

Hi, Can anyone please tell me how to retrieve emails from last year, that I deleted from 'trash' in my mail folder?
Thanks

It could be possible with 3'rd party software, but that's assuming you haven't been using your computer much since the point of that delete. And I'm assuming that's unlikely.
What kind of account was this, pop or imap?
