    Using the web panel of your inbox on Gmail, you can send and manage your emails without any difficulty and need for configuration. After logging in to the official Gmail website, in fact, you can delete a message sent or received in several ways, all of which are extremely intuitive.

    First, since Gmail tends to concatenate multiple emails into one conversation, consider whether you want to delete the entire conversation or a single message.



    In the first case, on the main screen, click on the conversation that encloses the last message received and the previous ones. Once this is done, press theicon with a trash can that you find in the top bar: in this way, you will have moved the email, including any replies sent by you or other recipients, to the tab Trash can. Alternatively, without opening the conversation, put a check mark in the box alongside, on the left, and then click onicon with a trash can located in the top bar.


    In case you want to delete a single message from a conversation, click on it to access it and then another click on the message to remove. Now, click on the icon , which you find on the right, and select the item Delete this message, in the screen you see. These same procedures, which I told you about in the previous paragraphs, can be applied to all the Gmail cards, reachable via the left side panel.


    Once moved to the trash, the emails stay there for 30 days. If you want to delete them instantly, select the item Trash can from the side menu of Gmail, check the messages to be deleted and click on the item Permanently delete which appears at the top. Alternatively, to completely empty the Gmail trash, click on the item Empty the trash now which is located at the top.

To do this, select the item Spam located in the left sidebar and click on the wording Delete all spam messages now, which you find at the top.
