How can I erase all my deleted e-mails at once?

I have to delete all my deleted e-mails one by one. This is very time consuming and there must be a way to delete all of them at once. Hopefully someone knows how.

Thanks

Jim

Your deleted emails are moved to Trash

Thunderbird > Choose the Email account > right click on the "Trash" choose "Empty Trash"

Thunderbird >Choose the Email account > Right click on the email account "Choose Settings"

  • Server Settings > Message Storage > Check [x] Empty Trash on Exit.
