Thanks, I didn't know I could use the seach function like that. It is helpful. WHY can't I just delete things!?!?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Okay, that's almost like linux geeks wrote it...
Sophia,
in some ways, I'd advise you to make a category for all that you do not want to delete and then delete everything else.
See, I sort of did that already, but I can't figure out how to delete everything NOT labeled something, only things that ARE labeled.
I have gotten down to about 3000, so not so terrible now!
Is there a way to copy-paste with an iphone? I'm getting used to the keyboard but I can't figure out how to ok!
Not yet, Jessica.
Somehow that functionality was not ready, or simply overlooked.
I doubt it will be long before it gets added to an update.
Sophia,
-in:inbox is how you identify all messages not in the inbox.
I have a label called z-done. If I want to identify all messages that aren't z-done, I'd type:
-label:z-done
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Hey now, being a Linux geek myself I can tell you that Linux gmail design is unfair. Not only would there be a command line version with 500 options, there would also be a brown GNOME version with two buttons and no features and a blue KDE version with 10,000 configuration options.

Yeah, I considered the Linux GUIs, but technically they're not actually part of Linux. Or something.
I suppose then there'd also be a port of the Linux gmail to OS X that would require X11 - and a dozen other things you'd have to install before compiling it....
