Working with conversations in batches

You can archive, label, delete, or perform other actions on a batch of conversations at
once, in your Inbox or in another labeled list of conversations.

work with as a batch.
When you check a conversation, the Archive, Delete, and Labels buttons
appear at the bottom of the screen.
Touch Archive, Delete, or Labels. Or press Menu
2
Report spam, Mute, Mark read/Mark unread, or Deselect all.
If you are using Priority Inbox, you can also mark conversations important or not
important in the menu (see "Working with Priority Inbox" on page 149).
Your action affects the entire batch of messages.
If you delete a batch of conversations, you can touch Undo in the yellow bar at the
top of the screen to undelete them. You can also use Undo after muting,
archiving, and reporting spam.
If you never work with batches of messages, you can hide the checkboxes to leave
more room for the subjects of conversations. See "Changing Gmail settings" on
page 163.
