To delete all your mail from Gmail, you can follow these steps:

Method 1: Using the Gmail Web Interface

1. Log in to your Gmail account on the web.
2. Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the page.
3. Select "See all settings" from the dropdown menu.
4. Scroll down to the "Filters and Blocked Addresses" tab.

6. In the "From" field, enter "me" (without quotes) to select all emails from your own account.
7. Click on the "Create filter" button.
8. In the "Apply the label" dropdown menu, select "Delete" (or "Trash" if you want to move the emails to the trash instead).
9. Click on the "Create" button.

Method 2: Using the Gmail Mobile App

1. Open the Gmail app on your mobile device.

4. Scroll down to the "General" section.

6. Confirm that you want to delete all messages by tapping on "OK".

Method 3: Using IMAP

1. Enable IMAP in your Gmail settings (Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP > Enable IMAP).
2. Use an email client or a third-party app that supports IMAP to connect to your Gmail account.
3. Delete all emails in the inbox using the email client or app.

Important Notes:

• Before deleting all your emails, make sure you have backed up any important messages or attachments that you may need later.
• Deleting all your emails will permanently remove them from your account, and you will not be able to recover them.
• If you have any filters or labels set up in your Gmail account, they will be removed when you delete all your emails.
• If you have any emails in your trash or spam folders, they will not be deleted by these methods. You will need to manually delete them separately.
