Hey saster,



Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines how to select multiple messages for deletion:

Delete, move, or mark multiple messages. While viewing a list of messages, tap Edit. Select some messages, then choose an action. If you make a mistake, shake iPhone immediately to undo.


Thanks,

Hi Apple,


There has to be a way to mass delete emails. Mine are now taking up all the storage space I have on both my i

phone 5 and my iPad 3. I'm already familiar with how the Edit function works in my Apple email account, but it would take me a year to select each individual email, one at a time, and delete them. And the only alternative solution I've seen involves deleting your entire inbox. I don't want to do that; I want to delete everything older than, say, 3 months.


Please help!!
