You already know that opening suspicious emails can cause a lot of problems. But did you know that letting emails sit around can also be an issue? Emails can take up tons of space on your Android operating system. If you keep thousands \u2014 or even hundreds \u2014 of emails around, then it\u2019s time that you clear a significant amount of space by deleting these emails in Gmail. <\/span><\/p>\n

Get Rid of Emails With Attachments<\/b><\/p>\n

Emails with big attachments can take up the most space in your inbox. So, if you\u2019re only going to delete certain emails, these are the ones with which you should start. To find emails with attachments, search for \u201chas:attachment\u201d in the Gmail search filter. If you\u2019re hesitant about how to begin getting rid of your emails, clearing out these big attachments is a good way to start.<\/span><\/p>\n

Clear Out Your Largest Emails<\/b><\/p>\n

Getting rid of the emails that are taking up the most space is the best thing to do, but it isn\u2019t always simple. If you use an IMAP client such as Mozilla Thunderbird, you can start sorting emails by size and attachments. By using the IMAP client and sorting your email sizes, you can then delete the emails that are taking up most of your phone\u2019s memory.<\/span><\/p>\n

Find Your Biggest Emails Instead<\/b><\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t want to download an IMAP client, you can also use a third-party service called Find Big Mail to scan your messages. This web-based service takes temporary access to your email, scans through your emails, and creates labels in your account so you can browse for large messages without engaging the Find Big Mail site.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stop Receiving Bulk Mail<\/b><\/p>\n

The easiest way to keep your inbox close to empty is to stop getting as many emails. You\u2019re probably subscribed to plenty of newsletters and mailing lists that you don\u2019t read, so why not unsubscribe? Use an app like Unroll.Me or do it manually. It only takes a few minutes, and it will keep your inbox free of clutter. Or, you choose to receive fewer emails per week from many of these business if you still enjoy receiving notifications and updates.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
