Yeah you can do that as well in the trash folder. Simply hit cmd shift f, 
search for what you want, hit vo cmd t twice and select all with cmd a,  and 
hit del. simple as apple pie.

Indeed! I do the same myself but in the scenario I outlined we're talking about 
messages left over in your trash and ways to rid yourself of them quickly.

Why not just filter out in the  search filed or create a smart mail box, then 
after that, to do the job for you? I have several to sort messages by date and 
show me from what month to what month so I can perge and when I deere it 
removes them from the folder(s) I have my smart mail box is monitoring. Easier 
then your method and less time consuming.  the search field is also pretty 
useful as well. Just search for wha thou want, then  cmd vo t twice to the

Re: Tip For Apple Mail Users, Time To Trim The Trash

2013-12-26 Thread Dane Trethowan
There are problems doing things that way, for example messages you may want to 
keep will be deleted, those lists you're on will have their mail erased after a 
period of time whereas with the rule method I described only the messages you 
don't want are erased in other words you control what you keep and what you 
don't.

Re: Tip For Apple Mail Users, Time To Trim The Trash

2013-12-26 Thread Mike Arrigo
Another way to avoid this is to simply configure the mail program to 
empty the trash folder when you close it. That way you never have to 
worry about messages building up.

Original message:

Hi!


So your trash is getting rather large? Can do away with all those 
eMails you received from eMail lists you once subscribed to? Dread the 
thought of tidying your Trash Box because you have thousands upon 
thousands of eMails to sort? Perhaps some simple rules can do the job 
for you, I've been using this approach over the last couple of weeks.


So you find an eMail which relates to a few hundred you've say received 
over a period of time from a list, select it from your Trash Box, press 
command-, to go into Mail preferences, select "Rules" and click on "Add Rule".


Here type a description appropriate to what you plan to do, say Delete 
Mac-Access and then proceed to Conditions, make sure that any of the 
following conditions are met is select and select "Any Recipient", by 
default the "From" field here should automatically show the list of 
eMail messages from the old list you're planning to purge from your system.



From here move to "Actions" and select "Delete Message".


Press "Apply" and Mail will then prompt, "Apply rule", answer "Yes" and 
all eMail corresponding to the rule you just created will be moved 
permanently from your Trash Box.


All you have to do now is to remove the rule you just created and 
repeat the whole process again for eMail you want deleted from all 
those old eMail lists you're no longer a member of.
