Wait… you’re supposed to do this monthly???
…uh oh.
Just select all and delete it all. If it’s really important they’ll email again.
I can only load and select 100 at a time. Every year or so I attempt to tackle it but it’s a sisyphus task.
I was helping a lady whose data limit was an inch away from being reached and it was all emails. She must have had 200k unread alone.
select all click delete
Hell yeah I did it!
Ha, it would probably take me a month to clean up my 10k+ email inbox. Work email though, I refuse to have more than 15 sitting in my inbox.
Personal email? Squeaky clean. Work email? I keep all of them for later reference. Currently have 6500. It’d be more of it wasn’t for our 1 year retention policy.
This I don’t get. Your work doesn’t archive emails? There’s been many times I was asked a question I knew came up years ago and thanks to the archive of mails I could answer the question quickly instead of starting from scratch again.
That’s how it was at my old job and I miss it. At my current workplace they only retain mail on the server for 1 year. If you want to retain it longer you have to archive it yourself and I just don’t have the local storage to archive all of my email on my machine like that. (External storage devices also aren’t allowed.)
there is no spelling error in the title of this post. I love having an edit button.
