I consistently delete gmail on the site about once a month because they are stored on my pc 
I Click select all the. They all get “checked” the. Select delete. Often a message appears above the email that asks - select all mail? I click yes. It confirms and deletes. Then I go ahead not trash and delete again.

Well, I have no idea how many I have, but for some reason Gmail won’t let me trash them the way Yahoo will—my only choice is to “archive” them, so I probably have a gazillion!! Does anyone know why you can’t just trash them?
