    No.  But if you move the messages to your Trash bin, there's a delete all option there.

    Alternatively, log onto your email provider's main system, access your email that way, and use whatever mass delete function that is available through them on their site.

    There isn't a delete all function but actually if you mark all messages in your inbox as read you can move them to any folder you like including the trash I had this same issue when I got my new iPad I ended up with 7000  messages in my inbox so I refused to believe there wasn't a way to get rid of then all at once lol after messing around I came up with that.
