Is there a way to delete all of my e-mails at one time instead of clicking on each one and putting a check box then clicking delete, then have to go to trash and do the same. It is nuts. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My trash bin is showing over 4000 deleted e-mails.

Hey all,
A couple of days ago my contact list completely vanished. I tried to add a couple names back and they didn't even show up. I am running 2.1-update1 with multi-touch, build 2.1.A.0.435. When I go to export the contacts via e-mail, my entire list is there for export which makes no sense as to why it doesn't show on my regular contact list under phonebook. I was thinking about resetting to factory and reloading the .vcf file I sent via email or reflash and resync my contacts which is what I really don't want to have to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated before I make a bad move.
Thanks.
Try syncing with Google. Then if they disappear, you can just sync again and you will have them back.
Tried that. Didn't work.
It almost sounds like you cut them instead of copying them. Have you searched the forum with the search tool at the top?
Yeah, not much was kicked back.
Have you tried this:
1. Go to Phonebook > Contacts.
2. Press the "Groups" button in the upper-left corner.
3. Make sure "Online contacts" is unchecked.
4. Under "Phone contact" and "Google", make sure you have the correct groups checked.
YAAAAAYYYYY!!! You're my savior!
I set up my email yahoo account on my LG One 2.2 phone. I accidentally deleted an important email and now it is sitting in the Trash folder on my phone. It does not sync with my yahoo account online so it is not recoverable there.
My problem now is getting this email out of the Trash folder on my phone to somewhere I can reply or forward it.
Unfortunately the only options I have on the phone are 'mark as unread' and 'delete'. The reply and forward are greyed out. Since I need to show proof of this email to someone far away i can't really show them my phone.
Since it is there on the phone there must be a place android stores these trashed emails, I have file expert however it is of little help.
Can anyone please advise on how I can get this email back to where I can do something with it?
BUMP..
I am going to swap phones very soon so if this email is located somewhere on the actual phone it may get wiped out and I will not be able to retrieve it...
If anyone has any ideas please reply soon
thanks!!!!!

I installed Enhance Email from the market. It gave me the functions needed to do batch deletes, batch moves, etc with the "select all" option. Its by QuantumSolutions. There should be a trial version on their web site if not a free version in the market.
Hi Rico,
THank you for the reply and recommendation. Seems like you had to buy another app to enhance the current limitations in the stock email app in the android platform. My problem is my trash folder shows i have 7 undeleted emails inside but when i open it there is nothing inside. Its really annoying and frustrating that the stock email in the Dell 5 is unable to do even simple functions like bulk delete or move or transfer. In my case , i don't have that many emails on the Dell as i clean up the trash folder every day but I cannot understand why these 7 emails can remain hidden in the folder and i am unable to delete it. Its weird. Since the emails are hidden i'm not sure even if the Enhance Mail can delete these hidden emails. Appreciate any help anyone can give to solve my problem.
Cheers.
Hi Herojam
have you logged on at the client side and erased the emails from the trash bin, then perhaps remove the account from the streak and reinstalling? Could just be a minor glitch where reloading the account may clear it upA?
Hi Rico,
Yes i managed to clear the hidden emails by deleting and removing the account and then recreating the account again. The hidden emails have gone. Thank you for the tip.
Looks like there was a glitch as you mentioned.
Cheers.

Great, sometimes that happens. The android environment is really nice. Like itover windows mobile for sure. Even though we get the basic layers of functionality, thats the beauty of it, it allows you to add on apps, etc that makes your android unique. The enhance email is just one of various ways you can manage emails and multi accounts.
as title says, i cant for the life of me figure out how to get rid of the email history of contacts that are not even on my phone.
i have accidently typed emails wrong before, and other peoples addresses from CC's, or 1 time random emails that i dont want saved with the same name as other people always show up.
if you hold the contact button down in the recipient tab you get a list of previously sent email contact logs, how do i delete those logs?
thanks
Clear data on the email app ?
I'm guessing tho. I don't use the email app, and this may delete stuff you might want to keep I.E saved email on your phone. Maybe make sure you have those emails in your account to download again/don't try this if the only copies of those emails you have saved are on your phone or you don't have them backed up.
success!
i stopped the email app and cleared the data, i had to reinstall my accounts but that was np.
the annoying autofill has reset itself so thats solved that problem, however when i press the contacts button to see the logs list its still the same as before with all the unwanted names listed.
i searched the net and i cant find an answer to clearing that list anywhere, so i dont suppose you can and we are stuck with it. i even wiped my phone before installing ICS and that hasnt cleared it. seems very wierd that theres noway to get rid of it
anyway thanks for your help mate
I am sure my SGS3 used to show all my folders in email. Since the OTA update I am only getting the Inbox.
Have checked settings and pressed show all folders but still only the Inbox comes up.
Any help much appreciated.
