Hi,
I have the same problem with my GMail, too. I don't know if my approach to the problem has been mentioned before. I think what I might do is set up Outlook for GMail on my laptop, using POP3 instead of IMAP. I'll tell it to pull all of the mail off of the server and not leave copies. In theory, that should do the trick. I may not have time to do that for a few days, but when I get around to testing this, I'll let you know what happens.

Tom

Keatan,

If you have that many messages, then call Google Tech Support and ask them
to do it for you. Or else close your Google Mail account, and open a new
one.
Obviously not a JAWS issue.

The problem is that I have several thousands of mails that I wish to
ddelete. Now the steps told by Samara only deletes 20 conversations
(at the most 100 mails). How do I delete huge numbers? Thank you
