Google Gmail - Remove All Spam Quickly

SUMMARY: Notice the spam removal link in Gmail? This immediately removes all currently detected spam from your account.

Everyone is tired of Internet spam; luckily Google's Gmail service has anti-spam filters built into the service. Spam e-mail is automatically sent to the "Spam" folder and deleted after 30 days. But what if you want to remove spam earlier?

This tip was written on March 21, 2007. Gmail's interface is subject to change.




1. Click the "Spam" folder on the left side of the Gmail window.

2. Here's a link you may miss. Right above your spam messages you should see a link stating "Delete all spam messages now" (refer the the below graphic). Click this link, confirm your decision, and Google will respond "Horray, no spam here!".
