No longer have a select all feature to get rid of disgusting emails. My iOS is 16

How can I delete hundreds of disgusting emails at once. The select all feature is gone. There are filthy, horribly offensive emails I have to delete one at a time. Please help.

iPad, iPadOS 16

Start by Searching your mailbox by Sender or suitable keyword - and/or combining with a filtered view in the Mail App sidebar:

Flag and filter emails on iPad - Apple Support


Next, tap the Edit button at top-right of the Mail sidebar; simply swipe your finger down (or up) the left-side of the message list to bulk select Mail Messages. Swipe below the bottom edge to rapidly select all the visible email messages.


Once selected, tap the Delete button at the bottom of the sidebar.
