Empty Yahoo Mail

kah22

I've just discovered that my GF has over 2300 emails in her Yahoo account! She has Asked me to delete them all. I don't know how it's done, can you advise?

She has an iPhone, iPad but no PC, however, I can access her mail box on my Windows laptop. I also have an iPad and iPhone

Thanks

I think you will have to delete in batches of either 25 or 50 emails at a time. Log in to Yahoo email. Towards the top left of the inbox there is a tickbox that allows you to select all the currently displayed emails. Click the tickbox and then click delete. Repeat this until the inbox is empty.

It seems that you can delete the whole inbox in one process as follows...

- Scroll down to the very end of your inbox

- Then select the 'tickbox' at the top left

- Then select the delete icon


(Clicking the 'tickbox' selects all the emails displayed, plus any more recent ones. So by displaying the oldest emails in the inbox, then clicking the 'tickbox', you select all the emails in the inbox.)
