Delete All Selected Emails
After successfully selecting all the emails for deletion in your Samsung S20's Email app, the final step involves permanently removing these selected emails from your inbox. Deleting a large number of emails at once can significantly free up storage space, enhance your email management efficiency, and ensure that your inbox remains organized and clutter-free. Here's a detailed guide on how to delete all the selected emails from your Samsung S20:

Initiate the Deletion Process: Once all the emails have been selected, locate the delete or trash icon within the Email app's interface. This icon is commonly represented by a trash bin or a similar symbol, and it is typically positioned in the app's toolbar or menu options. Tap on this icon to initiate the deletion process.
-
Confirm Deletion: Upon tapping the delete or trash icon, you will likely be prompted to confirm the action before the selected emails are permanently removed. This confirmation step serves as a safeguard against accidental deletions and provides you with the opportunity to review the selection before proceeding. Confirm the deletion to initiate the removal of the selected emails.
-
Permanently Remove Emails: Once the deletion is confirmed, the Email app will proceed to permanently remove the selected emails from your inbox. Depending on the number of emails being deleted, this process may take a few moments to complete. As the emails are deleted, the app may display a progress indicator to keep you informed about the status of the deletion process.
-
Verify Deletion: After the selected emails have been deleted, take a moment to verify that the inbox no longer contains the deleted emails. Scroll through your inbox to ensure that the selected emails have been successfully removed. This verification step allows you to confirm that the deletion process was executed as intended.
By following these steps to delete all the selected emails from your Samsung S20, you can effectively clear out your inbox and create a more streamlined and organized email environment. This process not only frees up valuable storage space on your device but also facilitates a more efficient approach to managing your emails, ensuring that your inbox remains uncluttered and optimized for productivity.
