Quick Scoop
To delete all mails from the same sender in your Trash
folder, open Trash, search by the sender’s email address or name, select all
matching messages, then choose **Delete forever** or **Empty Trash now** to
remove them permanently. In Gmail, messages in Trash stay there for 30 days
unless you delete them sooner.
How to do it
- Open your Trash folder.
- Search the sender using the email address or a keyword from the sender’s name.
- Select the checkbox for one result, then choose select all conversations that match this search if that option appears.
- Click Delete forever or Empty Trash now to remove them permanently.
If you use Gmail
Gmail lets you search by sender, including with
`from:sender@example.com`, and then bulk-delete the results. If you only want
to clear the Trash folder, Gmail also has an **Empty Trash now** option at the
top of the Trash view.
Important note
If your goal is to stop future emails from that sender
too, deleting from Trash will not block new messages by itself. For that, you
would need to unsubscribe or create a filter that sends future mail to Trash
automatically.
| Action | Result |
| Delete from
Trash | Removes the selected old messages permanently. | [3]
| Empty Trash now | Deletes everything currently in
Trash. | [3]
| Create a filter | Can auto-delete future
messages from the same sender. | [1]
TL;DR: search the sender
inside Trash, select all matching messages, and delete them forever; in Gmail,
**Empty Trash now** is the fastest way to clear them.
