Does anyone know a way I can block delete a load of emails from my account? I've got over 100k in there but can only delete them 100 at a time.

It gave me an idea, I managed to work out how to do a search for all mail before a certain year i.e before:2018 in the search box gives you all mail before then, select all then you will get an option to include all mail in the search instead of the default 100, delete them then delete everything in the bin, so in about 5 mins today I got rid of 93k emails!

glad you found a way, the problem I have with Gmail is I cannot block certain people, all it does is sends them to spam, and you still get them and still have to delete them.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
