How to delete all email messages on iphone 6

Is there a way to delete more than one message at a time on iphone 6

Could you break this down for me more specifically?  Hit menu after I've gotten into my email?  I don't see delete in the menu (only the box to the left of the actual email itself).  Thanks for any help!!

    How to delete multiple email messages from my Iphone 5C; email folder.

    there used to be option to keep last 50,100,200 messages/emails. We need that back. This is ridiculous to delete one by one.

  • 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.

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

  • Why is there no way to delete all emails from my iphone?

    Why is there no way to delete all emails from my iphone? IOS 7.1. Every other phone in the market allows you to 'select all' then delete.
    This trick of selecting one, then holding move, then unchecking (and subsequently moving all the emails to trash) doesn't work. I've read these suggestions and while it appears to work the emails just show up again once you leave and return to the inbox. Perhaps it worked on an older version of IOS.
    It blows my mind this is not a standard function. I get a few hundred emails at work every day, and most of the time I just want to delete all of them from the phone as I've read them already. Currently it seems i can only click edit and then have to check each email individually to be able to delete them at the same time; this is the definition of tedious. I would think there are millions of other iphone users who get their company email on their phones that must experience the same thing. It seems now i either spend 20 minutes a day deleting emails, or just let thousands of emails accumulate on the phone (taking up space and also making it hard to just review the most recent emails which is all I want to be able to do when checking email on my phone).
    I am hoping I am just missing some simple solution here that everyone else uses. Please help!!

    Only Apple could answer as to why there is no "select all/"delete all" function in the iOS mail app. Users have been bemoaning this lack of functionality for years now. Like everyone else, you can submit feedback to. Apple here.
    Apple - iPhone - Feedback
    While I understand the whole idea of being able to use the phone on the run, if you have an IMAP email account, and if you have access to a computer at work during the day, use your "select all" function on the server and delete all of the unwanted email there and it will be removed from the phone as well.
    That doesn't solve the problem on the phone, but it gets rid of the email which is your ultimate goal anyway.

  • How to delete all emails in inbox on ipad

    How do I delete all emails at once in the ipad inbox

    You actually can:
    it took me weeks of research to figure out finally how to decode this yet another secretive secrets of apple. there is a perfect way of deleting ALL emails at once without jailbreaking your iphone or ipad...and here it is:
    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 u will ACTUALLY move them or delete them on the server and not just the ipad.
    once you have moved all messages to trash you can either leave them there for the scheduled cleaning or empty it right away by doing this: go to trash folder and click edit. the delete all button shows up at the bottom of the screen. hit it! you r done!
    if you do not see effects of your actions on the server make sure you have enabled Your email accounts for such actions.
    tips:
    1. please give enough time (could take upto several minutes depending the number of emails to be moved) for the emails to be selected for the move. your screen will become unresponsive while all emails are being packaged. once emails are ready, in ipad, you will see them zoomed out on the right hand side of the screen, and in iphone you will see the message showing you the actual number of messages that have been selected.
    2. avoid purging very large number of emails, the mail app might freeze or crash. if your inbox has thousands of emails change your sync settings in mail settings to fill lesser number of emails in you inbox

  • How to delete all mail messages in account

    I can delete mail one by one, but is there a way to delete all emails in an account?

    Edit Menu/Select All then Delete
    Where's the Edit menu in the iPhone Mail app??
    @James - there is a Delete All option for the Trash mailbox, but not for any other mailbox. You can tap Edit then manually tap the selection circles next to each message, then tap delete. But, that's very inefficient! Your best bet is to access the mail account from a computer mail client (Apple Mail, Outlook, etc.) or a webmail interface and delete all the messages there.

  • Is there a way to delete all email messages from inbox without checking each one at a time on my iphone 4?

    Whenever I want to delete messages in the inbox on my iphone 4, using v4.2.8, I have to manually check each one and then delete them the checked ones as a group. Is there a way to select all and delete them at one time? I love the phone and it is a little complaint, but I often get 50-60 work related messages which I scan then delete because the originals are on my work computer. Thanks.

    Also, the iPhone is not a standalone device and obviously doesn't have a full blown mail client... it's an adjunct to your computer.  If you want to delete a lot of emails, do it on your computer.  You could also log into your webmail using a browser on your iPhone and do it from there.
    You have a point, but you're just helping exposing the misery a little more:  I actually DO delete the emails in WebMail, very easily.  The problem is the sorry state of the Apple email client, that does not replicate those actions on the device, so I have to delete the messages TWICE--once on my computer, with a couple of clicks, and then on my iPhone, with a couple (hundreds) finger gestures.
    As to your point that the iPhone is not a standalone device:  that's nonsense.  The iPhone does a lot of things that users thought IMPOSSIBLE just 10 years ago.  Are you saying that the addition of a simple feature like a "Delete All Messages" button is too much for a mobile device?  Then what to say about Siri, a complex-beyond-our-imagination system that incorporates voice recognition, AI, searching and other hard-to-grasp technologies, all at our fingertips?

  • How to delete all emails in inbox at once on iPhone 4S?

    I read a previous discussion about this, but that was when I was on iOS6. Is there a way to do this on iOS7? I've got hundreds of emails in my inbox, and evertime I try to delete a bunch of them, more just come flooding in.

    I've got tons in the server, too, because I don't go in and delete them there after they have been loaded into my desktop inbox in iMail, just in case I deleted something in iMail and need to find it again. Emails are automatically deleted from the server after 2 weeks anyway, but they seem to stay in the iPhone inbox. Wish there was a "delete all" for the iPhone. Hoping maybe in the next OS.

  • Checking for new email deletes all previous messages from iphone 3g

    After receiving any email, the device is removing all email from all local folders. The remove setting is set to 'never', 'ask before deleting' is set to 'on' and it is set to show 75 messages. There is nothing in the trash, sent, or main inbox.
    I can see a test email for about 5 minutes. if I resynch or turn the device off, and and then check for new email, the old email is removed. No trace of it anywhere.
    It didn't do this originally. It just started in the last few days.
    Thanks.

    I suggest deleting and recreating the account.

  • How do delete all email from a mail box?

    On both iPad 2 and iPhone 4G there are mail boxes that accumulate a mass of mail. I must delete messages individually! Is there a way to delete all mail simultaneously?

    This is a better and much easier way to delete multiple emails in inbox
    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 receive all emails on both iphone and PC

    I had a Blackberry for the last 5 years and a HTC Desire for the last 3 months - the email system on both was excellent in that -
    Every email went to both my PC and the phone
    So if I deleted it off my phone - I knew it was on the PC until I deleted it from there.
    Now I have an iphone4 and the system is proving a nightmare -
    It sends half the emails to my PC and half to the iphone but not both
    Sending emails from the iphone takes hours if they even go
    And if I delete emails off the iphone they reappear then 4 hours later
    Sometime when I try to access emails on the iphone -- I get an error message saying server not recognised
    And so it continues ....
    Is there anyway that the iphone can do exactly the same as the Blackberry and HTC in that all emails go to both my phone and my PC.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    With your phone connected, iTunes running, on the Info pane, scroll down, under Advanced, replace data on this phone with data on this computer, put a check in the box for contacts, hit apply/sync.

  • How to delete ALL emails at once on  iPad 2- (Not one at a time) -?

    I came across this link for how to delete multiple (ALL)  emails at the same time on the iPad 2. (on a non - jailbroken device).
    It seems that it's working for people, but it isn't working for me. Has this worked for anyone else on an iPad 2? (non-jailbroken)?
    Here is a link to the post :
    Please let me know if it works for you and if so, hopefully I can figure out why it isn't working for me. Thanks.

    Yes, it definitely takes a while if you have a lot of emails to trash.
    Also, I've noticed with IOS7, it takes longer, even if there aren't that many emails. But at least it works !!!

  • How to delete all email attachments to free up space?

    I'm on a MBP with a 240 GB SSD. Somehow my Mail folder is 90 GB!
    I'd like to have an expert tell me how to go about deleting all of the attachments from my SSD so that I can free up space.
    My set up is several work email accounts, and one personal email account, on Mail.app, all IMAP via Google Apps and Gmail.
    I found this, and tried it, but only freed up 4 GB, which doesn't make sense to me???
