How do i permanently delete all mails from gmail

A bold move!

Before we proceed, please note that permanently deleting all emails from your Gmail account will remove them from your account forever, and you won't be able to recover them. Make sure you're certain about this decision.

That being said, here are the steps to permanently delete all emails from your Gmail account:

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 and select "See all settings."
  3. Scroll down to the "Filters and Blocked Addresses" tab.
  4. Click on the "Create a new filter" button.
  5. In the "From" field, enter @gmail.com (without quotes).
  6. Click on the "Create filter" button.
  7. In the "Apply the label" dropdown menu, select "Delete it."
  8. Click on the "Create" button.
  9. Confirm that you want to delete all emails by clicking "OK" in the pop-up dialog box.

Method 2: Using the Gmail API

  1. Enable the Gmail API for your project in the Google Cloud Console.
  2. Install the google-api-python-client library using pip: pip install google-api-python-client
  3. Create a Python script with the following code:
    
import os
import google.auth
from googleapiclient.discovery import build

Set up authentication

creds, project = google.auth.default(scopes=['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify'])

Create the Gmail API client

service = build('gmail', 'v1', credentials=creds)

Get all emails in the inbox

response = service.users().messages().list(userId='me').execute() messages = response.get('messages', [])

Delete each email

for message in messages: service.users().messages().delete(userId='me', id=message['id']).execute()


4. Run the script to delete all emails.

**Method 3: Using a Third-Party Tool**

There are several third-party tools available that can help you delete all emails from your Gmail account. Some popular options include:

* SaneBlackhole: A Chrome extension that allows you to delete all emails from your Gmail account.
* Gmail Cleaner: A web-based tool that can delete all emails from your Gmail account.

Please note that using third-party tools may pose security risks, so be cautious when using them.

Before proceeding, make sure you've backed up any important emails or data you want to keep. Once you've deleted all emails, you won't be able to recover them.
