Mail UI suggestion: Delete All

I only ever get spam, and I have a LOT of characters. Cleaning out all that spam is a time-consuming pain. A single "Delete All" email button would be sweet. Yes, I know that there's a chance a piece of non-spam will get deleted. I accept that risk.

I see no problem with this QoL feature.

My only addendum is that mail with attached items or inf should not be auto-deleted by the "Delete all" but should bring up a prompt as to whether the mail should be returned.

You can attach items or inf to mail now? Man, I've been away too long!

You might want to look at what else you can do.

There is an option to only receive mail from Friends and SG members, but I believe you'll still get e-mails sent to your global (so people can mail you stuff).

You're not getting spam that's addressed to your global, are you? o_o

Same but I did notice that you can't delete an email that has stuff attached to it. You can foward, return or claim it. Then after you claim it you can delete it. So I would assume that it would work the same way with a Delete All, but who knows.

If he enables the filter that blocks all emails from people not on his friends/SG list(s) it won't matter if RMT sites are sending spam to his global. He'll only get emails from friends and SG members.

There has been mumbling in a few corners of the forum that global mail circumvents SG/friends, which indicates that SG/friends is character-to-character mail only.

I haven't remembered to test this myself while in game, so cannot confirm or deny.

I have e-mail set to Friends and SG only and I get global e-mails not from friends or SG members.
