delete emails in batches

Hello, I have thousands of unimportant emails from the same senders that I would like to delete sequentially in batches. Is this possible? Please advise.

yes, you can do that.


if the emails that you want to delete are adjacent to each other in the list, you can click the email at the bottom of the list, and then press and hold the "shift" key, and click on the message at the top of the list and they will all be highlighted. then press your "delete" key.


and if they are not adjacent to each other in the list, you can press and hold your "command" key while clicking each of them and then they will be highlighted separately. and then press your "delete" key.
