How to automatically delete mail from specific sender

automatoremailmail.app

I'm in the mail app on mac and I'm clearing out my Gmail archives and trying to speed up the process by finding senders, i.e. "verify@twitter.com" or any of the promotional ones that they send weekly stuff, etc.

Then pasting their addresses in the search and deleting all the mail from it at once. I feel like there must be a way to automate this using Automator, but when looking at the program I can't figure it out.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

You don't actually need Automator for this.

  • Open your Gmail account in Mail
  • Create a mail rule for that account which deletes messages from the senders you want to get rid of
  • When saving the rule, you will be asked whether you want to apply the rule to the mails in the current mailbox
