Hello Just for future reference, If you know something is off topic for this group, please do not post it to the group without first asking the list owners, i.e., Mac Access Support, if it’s alright to do so. However, since your post is very specifically related to Apple’s platform, it is not, in actual fact, off topic at all. :)
So, there’s no issue. The tutorial is very specific and that’s fine, postings like this which directly deal with Apple’s hardware/software are perfectly acceptable and, indeed, very much welcomed within the group. We would certainly not wish to deny the members of this group the opportunity of trying your recommendations. So, thanks for the post.

Yes this is off topic, but you all can spread it around, I’m sure. First, I go to gmail.google.com, with standard view. I press left and right arrows to turn quick nag off, and press up and down arrows to focus on the table of messages. Er, that’s Quick Nav, not quick nag. Anyway, I press star, that’s shift 8, then A. This selects all the messages on the page. Then, I press number, or hash, or pound, which is shift 3. That deletes all selected messages. Now, this is in the inbox, and while it will be helpful on android devices and gmail web views, Apple mail, apparently, shows all mail that is not from you or in its trash folder. So, you’ll have to go to all mail. So, press right or left arrow until you hear something like inbox link. Keep quick Nav off throughout this whole thing. While these are links, which you can click on with VO space, you arrow down through them, like menu options. Then, when you’ve reached All Mail, press enter. You’ll be placed in the list of all your mail, every last one, including google chats and such. Here, select all as described above, star then A. Then, move out of the table, and you’ll find “all X of the messages on this page are selected. Click to select all Y in all mail.” X being the number of messages you have set to display per page, and Y being the total. So then, click the link, and you have all 80000 or so emails and chats selected. Then, press the hash/pound/number, and you’ll be presented with a dialog. Click okay. Another dialogue will proceed it, click okay. Then, close the tag and wait for an hour or so, and your gmail will be cleansed of all the mutterings of a long-abandoned email list and exs and all the other memories you’d prefer not to have lingering around. <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> or at the public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>.
