How to delete all social mails easily in gmail
The daunting task of deleting all social media emails in Gmail! Here are a few methods to help you achieve this:
Method 1: Using Gmail's Search Operator
- Log in to your Gmail account.
- Click on the search bar at the top of the page.
- Type the following search query:
from:facebook.com OR from:twitter.com OR from:instagram.com OR from:linkedin.com
(replace with the social media platforms you want to delete emails from). - Press Enter to execute the search.
- Click on the "Bulk actions" dropdown menu at the top of the search results page.
- Select "Select all conversations in this search" (or press Ctrl+A on Windows or Command+A on Mac).
- Click on the "Delete" button.
Method 2: Using Gmail's Labels
- Log in to your Gmail account.
- Create a new label by clicking on the "Labels" button at the top of the page.
- Name the label something like "Social Media" or "Spam".
- Go to your inbox and select all the emails you want to delete (you can use the "Select all conversations in this search" option or manually select each email).
- Right-click on the selected emails and choose "Apply label" > "Social Media" (or the label you created).
- Go to the "Social Media" label and select all the emails (again, use the "Select all conversations in this search" option or manually select each email).
- Click on the "Bulk actions" dropdown menu at the top of the page.
- Select "Delete" to delete all the emails labeled as "Social Media".
Method 3: Using a Third-Party Browser Extension
- Install a browser extension like "Gmail Bulk Delete" or "Gmail Mass Delete" from the Chrome Web Store.
- Follow the extension's instructions to select the emails you want to delete.
- Click on the extension's button to delete the selected emails.
Important Notes:
- Before deleting any emails, make sure you're logged in to the correct Gmail account and that you're deleting the correct emails.
- Be cautious when using the "Delete" button, as it will permanently remove the emails from your account.
- If you're using Method 1, you can also use the "Archive" button instead of "Delete" to move the emails to your "All Mail" label instead of deleting them.
- If you're using Method 2, you can also use the "Move to" feature to move the emails to a different label or folder instead of deleting them.
I hope these methods help you delete all those social media emails in Gmail!
