Empty Junk Folder

I need to empty my super crowded junk folder from my pc because from the phone I can only do it one message at a time and it takes forever. Please the empty folder option. (+better filters for junk would be nice too)

    I liked when I selected the radio button and all emails on the current screen were selected. that way I can delete a safe number of emails at a time without deleting something I want

    I know that you can hold the email icon down until it is checked but then you have to spend a lot of time checking the circles beside each email. can you possible put a feature in where you hold down that icon but you will have options to delete 20/50/75/100 emails at a time. then you can uncheck any individual ones if you wish to. saves a lot of time and frustration 😊

    In the Outlook Spam folder, move the "Empty Spam" button away from the Menu button. It's too close to the Menu button and could get tapped accidentally.

    just a clear all to purge all the annoying mail built up over years of neglect. clean up spam and inbox and trash. Obviously don't touch mail archived or sent to other folders.

    1. Open app 😆 
    2. Go to spam folder. 
    3.Touch and hold any message to select it - must hold for a couple of seconds or else message will open (and we don't want that). 
    4. Tick will appear to the left of the message to show it has been selected. 
    5. This will reveal some more otions at the top. One of which is three dots one above the other. Touch these to reveal a 'select all' option. 
    6. Select all then delete with the bin icon.

    Right, but if I search for say all Petco emails in my inbox, I can not delete them all at once without clicking on each one individually and deleting each one.

    Yes we need an option on android to delete all junkmail folder at once or select all with one click and then delete.

  • Jason Redlin commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    it won't empty the folder. I select the spam emails and hit delete and nothing happens. I can't be much clearer than that.

  • AZEEM HASHMAT commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    There is no facility of selecting more than one mail at one go and delete all of them by one click, please add such feature.
