Re: [apple-iphone] Re: Select All to Trash in IOS 9?

Have any of you "delete all" people tried, Edit, Mark All Trash? It is three steps, but it deletes them all.

I too wish for that feature. I receive my emails (Cox is my ISP) both on my desktop computer and my iPhone. If I am out and about, I read it on my iPhone first. It is not a problem to delete them as I read them. Then when I get home, I select all of them on my computer and do a mass delete. However, when I read them first on my computer, as I am doing right now, I can delete them as I read them, but then when I get to my iPhone, I have to delete all 50 or so emails one by one. Having a mass delete feature would make life so much easier and I never understood why it wasn't an option. I understand the workaround involving IMAP vs. POP but very often when I read something on my phone, I don't want it to disappear from the server after I read it.

large attachments.
