I would like to be able to delete all my Trash bin emails in one hit. Have followed web help unsuccessfully. I use iPhone 5s and iPad mini, both running ios 11-2 Thanks in advance. Tel.

The following is just a cut-&-paste from the web, so you may already have seen it. If you have though, perhaps you could tell us where it goes wrong for you?

Step 1. Select the "Mail" application from the main menu. Tap the email account you want to empty the trash. If you have multiple email accounts, then you will have to do this process for all the accounts.

Step 2. Select the "Trash" icon. Select the “Edit” button from the top right corner of the screen.

Step 3. On tapping “Edit”, tap the "Delete All" option to delete all the mails in the trash folder
