I have over 18,000 e-mails. How do I delete them ALL at the same time?
-
So yeah, I know 18,000 is a bit much, but it crashed my yahoo. I can only delete 35 e-mails at a time, and it's taking me FOREVER. Is there anyway I can delete them ALL at the same time? Please help me~

Answer:
DELETE ALL MAIL AT ONCE On your mail page click on Options > mail options and in general check the top one "scroll all messages in a scrolling list" then click on "Save Changes" Then back in the mail page click on Inbox then type Ctrl+A and hit the delete button,and confirm That will delete all the email in the Inbox,and you wont have to do the first bit again to delete them all Have a good one J R :)

You can delete them all at once----BUT only IF----you're using the new upgraded Yahoo (Beta version). Click Options>>then mail options>>and on the "general options" page (under "Messages settings")---check the button that says "Show all messages in a scrolling list" (with Preview Pane option) . THEN click "Save changes" in the upper left corner. That puts all your emails in ONE long scrolling list so you can delete them all at once. Then---"Select all"---and "delete". ************************************* However: Sounds like you're using the Classic version----you can only delete a page at a time, BUT you CAN assign more mail to a page. Just change the "messages per page" to 200 instead of 25. That's 8 times faster at least. Mail page>>options>>mail options----go down to and change the number in the box---then click "save" change. Now you can delete them page by page----200 at a whack

At like the very top it has a thing you can click and all the emails are Highlighted and when you click delete the entire inbox is deleted

Isn't there a little check box on the top? Just click that box and all the emails will be checked and then click delete. That should do the trick. I just hope it won't freeze or anything like that.

Click on the box: "select" and see there is whole checks on every emails and click the delete. Bud, am I clear to you?
there is a top square button. click on it and it will highlight the emails. erase it like that
