Apple ipad mail advanced settings delete after week

To delete emails from the Apple iPad's Mail app after a week, you can follow these steps:

Method 1: Using the Mail app's built-in feature

  1. Open the Mail app on your iPad.
  2. Tap on the "Mailboxes" tab at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Tap on the mailbox you want to configure (e.g., "Inbox", "Sent", etc.).
  4. Tap on the "Edit" button in the top-right corner of the screen.
  5. Tap on the "Sort By" option and select "Date".
  6. Tap on the "Sort Order" option and select "Newest First".
  7. Tap on the "Show" option and select "All".
  8. Tap on the "Days" option and select "7" (or any other number of days you want to keep emails for).
  9. Tap on "Done" to save the changes.

This will delete emails older than 7 days from the selected mailbox.

Method 2: Using a third-party email client

If you prefer to use a third-party email client, such as Microsoft Outlook or Spark, you can configure the app to delete emails after a week. Here's an example using Microsoft Outlook:

  1. Open Microsoft Outlook on your iPad.
  2. Tap on the "Settings" icon (looks like a gear) in the top-right corner of the screen.
  3. Tap on "Accounts" and select the account you want to configure.
  4. Tap on "Advanced" and then "Delete".
  5. Set the "Delete messages older than" option to "7 days".
  6. Tap on "Save" to save the changes.

This will delete emails older than 7 days from the selected account.

Method 3: Using a third-party email management app

There are also third-party email management apps available that can help you delete emails after a week. For example, you can use the "Email Manager" app, which allows you to set up rules to delete emails based on various criteria, including age.

  1. Download and install the "Email Manager" app from the App Store.
  2. Open the app and grant it access to your email account.
  3. Tap on the "Rules" tab and then "New Rule".
  4. Select "Delete" as the action and set the "Condition" to "Age" with a value of "7 days".
  5. Tap on "Save" to save the rule.

This will delete emails older than 7 days from your email account.

Remember to always review your email settings and rules to ensure they are working as intended and not deleting important emails.
