Handy Hint - A nifty trick for deleting all mail from a mailbox!
Have you ever wondered if there is a way to delete all messages in a particular mailbox - for example, from your Inbox? Well, there is - but it's a little tricky, and is not a 'documented feature' from Apple!
Watch this short video - press ▷to play.
If you don't see ▷ at first, it will be because the video file is still downloading. Just wait a short while, and it should appear in the middle of the screen.
Step by Step Instructions.
1. Click Edit when viewing the list of emails in your mailbox.
2. Your emails show circles on the left. Just tap on the circle next to one of the emails so that it is ticked.
3. Press and hold the Move at the bottom (don’t let go until step 5).
4. While still holding the word Move, deselect the ‘ticked’ email by touching on the tick.
5. Then release your hold on Move.
6. You should see a screen like that below, asking you where to ‘move’ the selected messages. It also shows how many you are going to be ‘moving’ (in this case only 5).
