How to DELETE a message in mail

Not how to delete the message after you read it......
I want to delete KNOWN spam emails before I open them....
On my samsung you just hold your finger on the email and the delete choice comes up BEFORE you open that spam mail. I use an Imap account so the emails are not fully downloaded.

You should watch the tutorial videos if you have not.
In answer to your question, slide your finger over the email header and to the right. A red Delete button will appear. Tap Delete. Check out this clip on how to delete email.
You will find it as #2 on Finger Tips and at the time this was posted, the clip was also displayed to #2 Delete a Message.

  • How to delete multiple messages in mail

    How to select a bunch of messages in mail to delete.

    I Wonder if your sitting there laughing at us as if there is some big conspiracy about selecti all and deleting all from our iPhones and iPads.
    The conspiracy.
    Why can we not just not select all in the mail inbox and then delete all, if we do not want to delete every single one of them then deselect the few that we do not want to delete instead of having to select the thousands we do want delete individually. 
    And if you do make a mistake and delete the wrong emails by selecting all, then go to your trash and reinstate the ones you did not want to delete 
    I think 99% of us know how to DELETE emails individually, as you put it.
    That's just sarcasm and if not then then your not fully understanding the question asked.
    I would also say that probably 99% of us want to be able to select all and delete all if that's what we desire.
    I would just like a honest answer of why we cannot select all delete all rather than giving me a load of rubbish about encase we delete something we didn't want to delete.

  • How to delete gmail messages in Mail for Mac

    I am using Mail 7.3 on my Macbook Pro with Mavericks 10.9.5.
    I use Gmail for my email.
    When I DELETE a message in Gmail it goes into the Gmail Archive (and stays in the All Mail folder)- it does NOT get Deleted.
    Gmail help says I need to drag each message to the Trash when using Mail as Delete will not work.
    Really?
    This is a drag to do, besides there is no Trash folder.
    I have a 'Bin' folder and a 'Deleted Messages' folder so I'm trying to use them.
    Still for Mail and Gmail not to be compatible for Delete seems crazy.
    I have tried changing the Mailbox Behaviours in Preferences but it seems to make no difference.

  • When deleting a message in mail, how do you get it to advance to the next message? whenever i delete a message it goes back to the previous message.

    when trying to delete a message in mail, i would prefer to advance to the next message. i delete a message and the curser goes back to an earlier message. i usually delete the most recent messages first.

    First of all, you've posted in the Snow Leopard forum, but your profile says you're running Leopard, not Snow Leopard. What version of Mac OS X are you really running? You should always be sure that your profile matches the forum you're posting in, otherwise the "solution" to your problem may be totally ineffective.
    Part of your problem is that deleting Mail messages depends on how you have them ordered. If they are listed in Descending Date order (most recent at the top), and you want to delete a series of consecutive emails from an earlier time, you should select the last one in that group and press the Delete key; with each one that's deleted, the selection will move to the next one up the list. You could also select the first one in the group, then Shift-click on the last one in the group and press Delete to get rid of them in one step.
    If you have them listed in Date Ascending order (most recent at the bottom), you would have to select the oldest message(s) you want to delete and select it (or them) and press the Delete key, and the selection would move down the list to the next most recent message in the window.

  • Since updating my Iphone 4 I cannot figure out how to delete old messages.  There is no edit button.  Can anyone help?

    Since updating my Iphone 4 I cannot figure out how to delete old messages.  There is no edit button.  Can anyone help?

    By "sending" do you mean sending email?
    If so, what app are you using to take the photos on your iPhone 5? Or are the photos from a different source (saved to your Camera Roll from somewhere else, like a web page or Messages)?
    My guess is that Mail gives you the option to send different file sizes when it detects you are trying to Mail a really large photo file. The size of photos on the iPhone 5 is really big and some email providers may stop your mail from being delivered if attachments are too large. Thus, Mail tries to help you by offering to resize the photo.
    I suspect that if you are sending smaller files, Mail does not bother giving you options to save a smaller version. In fact, I have seen this behavior. So, if the photo is already "small enough", it gets sent as-is.
    To my  knowledge, there is no global iOS setting for this. Some apps may have different rules, of course.

  • How to delete the messages in the purges folder?

    if the mailbox is enabled the single item recovery, then the messages would move from deletion folder to the purges folder After running the following script,
    Search-Mailbox dave -searchdumpsteronly
    -deletecontent
    so my question is how to delete the messages in the purges folder with some script or retention policy?
    Please click the Mark as Answer button if a post solves your problem!

    Thank you all,
    As the mailbox is enabled single item recovery.
    I just want to make the items neither in deletion folder, nor in purges folder.
    So I think there are two ways to achieve this.
    Method 1,disabled the single item recovery. then delete the items in deletion folder ,so it wouldn't enter to the purges folder, it just deleted permanently. then enable the single item recovery
    Method 2,delete the items in deletion folder,then the messages move to the purges folder, then delete the messages in purges folder.
    the Method 1 is not so good ,as it need to disable the single item recovery firstly, then enable  single item recovery .
    So I want to use the Method 2

    To schedule delete jobs, proceed as follows:

    Check out the documentation on "expire". Since I don't know what version Messaging server you're running, how can I point you to the right documentation?
    Both Messaging 5.2 and 6.2 have a way to automatically expire messages.

  • TS3899 How do I select and delete multiple messages from mail?

    How can I select mutiple messages in my inbox and send them all to the trash without selecting each message and trashing it? Using the "Mark All" command does not give me that option--only the "Flag" and "Mark as Read" options.

    I know there is no delete all option within Mail app but this workaround does the trick
    1. Go to your inbox
    2. Press Edit
    3. Tap any message once to select it
    4. Press AND HOLD the Move button
    5. While still holding the Move button, tap the message you selected
    6. Release the Move button
    7. This will bring up a dialog box asking you which folder you’d like to move all your messages to – just select the Trash folder and you’re all done

  • How to archive a message in mail app and delete in imap gmail

    I've been searching the forums before asking this but have failed to find the answer.
    I'd like to, if possible, use the archive function in my mail app on iMac to archive and store messages locally. At the same time I'd like to delete those messages from the Gmail servers so that my archived messages only sit on my iMac.
    I've tried but Gmail creates an [IMAP]/Archive folder with the messages that I've archived on my mac.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance

    Thankyou
    Yes, I tried that already and it successfully stores the email locally, "On my Mac", however, the email remains within Gmail's All mail folder and is therefore not removed from Google's servers.
    Is it possible to achieve this without having to go into Gmail and separately deleting the mail from All mail?
    Would like to avoid the duplication if possible.
    Thanks

  • How do delete all messages in my all mail folder?

    Hi, I use gmail and want to delete the messages in my all mail folder. Whenever I empty my trash, the mail keeps popping up in my all mail folder. I don't like this!

    hullabaloo, we appreciate this device info! Should definitely be possible. If you go to your Voicemail Box, you can select Delete>on the bottom right hand corner, the option to choose Delete All should appear. This way you can delete them much quicker.
