Can i automatically reject all mail i gmail

The eternal quest for email management!

While there isn't a straightforward way to automatically reject all incoming mail in Gmail, you can use filters and labels to achieve a similar effect. Here are a few approaches:

Method 1: Use a filter to archive all incoming mail

  1. Go to Gmail's settings (gear icon) > Filters and Blocked Addresses.
  2. Click "Create a new filter".
  3. In the "From" field, enter @* (this will match all incoming mail).
  4. Click "Create filter".
  5. In the "Apply the label" dropdown, select "Archive" (or any other label you prefer).
  6. Click "Create".

This will automatically archive all incoming mail, effectively "rejecting" it. However, keep in mind that archived emails are still stored in your Gmail account and can be accessed if needed.

Method 2: Use a filter to delete all incoming mail

  1. Go to Gmail's settings (gear icon) > Filters and Blocked Addresses.
  2. Click "Create a new filter".
  3. In the "From" field, enter @* (this will match all incoming mail).
  4. Click "Create filter".
  5. In the "Apply the label" dropdown, select "Delete it" (or any other action you prefer).
  6. Click "Create".

This will automatically delete all incoming mail, effectively "rejecting" it. However, be cautious when using this method, as deleted emails are permanently removed from your account and cannot be recovered.

Method 3: Use a third-party email client or add-on

If you're looking for a more advanced solution, you can consider using a third-party email client or add-on that integrates with Gmail. Some examples include:

Keep in mind that these solutions may have limitations or require additional setup, so be sure to review their documentation and terms of service before using them.

I hope this helps you achieve your goal of automatically "rejecting" all incoming mail in Gmail!
