The delete all function will not work with win 10 mobil have over 5m emails. I can delete one at a time. Using up way too much memory.

I believe you can set how many are to download at a time. Have you tried that?

5 million emails? Wow

In mail app settings for your account, set the syncing period to be much shorter, like 2 weeks. This will remove older mails

For large scale deleting, a pc browser will be better to work on that

... You can also use PC for deleting all mails by selection.
