- In this video I show you how I configured my Gmail account to automatically delete unarchived mail after 7 days that hasn't been starred or marked as important. I set this up for free using Google's own Apps Script service which allows you to write scripts that interact with Gmail using basic JavaScript.

I had this idea 5 years ago but had no idea how to do this. So glad you made this video!!! Spot on!
Incredibly helpful. I'm sharing this among many of my professional circles. Keep up the content!!
Dude! This was so helpful! I just recently discovered Google Apps Script and am now able to recover many hours a week I used to spend managing Gmail. Thank you so much!
right on time, I just decided to start managing my email more effectively! thank you sir!
Your content is amazing, welcome back.
This is awesome! I totally needed something like this 10 years ago. Thank you!
So glad you're back!
How does this only have 700 likes? This is gold right here.
Wonderful. Thanks for the well written script and high quality video explanation!
I've been trying to find this for so long! Thank you
Bro thanks so much! I've been trying to render an HTML file from a .gs code but wasn't being able to render the line breaks properly. I searched everywhere and finally landed on your video. A simple ! makes all the difference!
Wonderful script mate, thanks for sharing🔥
Before this video, I spent hours trying to figure out the step at 14:45 and got caught in a pit of authentication confusion. And all I had to do was click the advanced button. Thanks for the video!
This must have changed because i have no such option anymore...is their a work around for this or how does it work?
Why setup the trigger in the code when you can use the triggers menu and create triggers to call specific functions at specific time intervals?
I've learned a lot by watching ur videos. Your awesome.
could you make an updated video about this ? It would be so so useful
Can i specify a date so that when the purge function triggers, it will purge the mails received after that particular date?
if yes, can you lemme know in function i will defining it?
Thanks.
Hello
I want to work online, but I'm confused after encountering a lot of terms that I don't know such as:
Name server, Web server, Serveur local, Domain name, Hosting, shared hosting, dedicated hosting, vps , HTML, PHP, Wordpress, Les fichiers htaccess, Fichier config.
is there a course to learn these ?

かせし
Great videos, thank you!
Loved the sharing of more content
Works great on my Workspace account but it doesn't seem to be running on my personal Gmail, is there a difference?
Do you know if it's possible to write a script where you can upload a CSV file including emails you've SENT to, and then have the script filter that list and get a new CSV file of only the addresses that haven't replied?
Hi, I have a problem with this code. When i filter by query from tutorial, then sometimes see a starred and important messages. I don't know why?
In thread one message without of star is explaining but "important mark"? "important" mark is for all of message in thread.
After running "purge" execution, it works and it triggers "purgeMore" 2 minutes later which also works.... But then it stops, even though I still have loads more threads left. Why doesn't the "purgeMore" function keep repeating every 2 minutes until all the threads are deleted?
Trying right away!
How You hide text like titles of emails in this video?
Hi! You could help me develop an automation to check email from other accounts? Thank you very much
Hi! Do you have any type of updated method for this that could be used today? Preferable plug and play type code lol I am not super tech savy
how do these app scripts script relate to 'enabling gmail api'? is this needed? thanks
Hi there. Can you teach how to automatically delete email in spam send by specific users? Thank you.
Hi is it possible to run a script when an email is received ?
Hi Ben-I have followed your CZcams video - copy and pasted it from the git however, nothing seems to be working - do I need to set the time please
Thanks for your script
you video is great!! its educational and funny at the same time.. "app script script what a terrible name" ha ha
What if you need to iterate through more than 500 threads? Is there a way
thank you!
That's perfect, but there's a limit of 100 calls to "MoveToTrash" method :(
More content please? :)
Hi can we sent email from spreadsheet with images attach?
Yes.
thanks
Has anyone noticed that this script is only so helpful because "Google Magic" toggles a lot of emails to "Important" based on some algorithm? I ran purgemore against my entire inbox and I ended up with still 4,000 emails in my inbox thanks to "Google Magic" marking 4,000 emails, over time, as being "Important" based on whatever algorithm. I COULD change the script to also delete all emails flagged as "Important," but that would delete those emails that I explicitly marked as being "Important."
I have 800,000 emails.... i need help
czcams.com/video/OFuaoeq7gSw/video.html - does this still work ? I get an error "Sign in with Google temporarily disabled for this app
This app has not yet been verified by Google in order to use Google Sign in." with no option to click "advanced" anywhere on this screen. Has google's policy changed since creating this video ?
What you've been doing for the last 4 years? 🤔
At least he looks exactly the same😜
prob work life took over
