Office 365 Outlook – How to Select or Move More Than Displayed Emails

emailoffice-365office-onlineoutlook-web-access

When I click the checkbox to select all the emails, it selects all the emails in my view.

Which means that if I have 900 emails in my inbox, and tick the checkbox, it will select… 9 emails. I would therefore have to reproduce the action 100 times to select them all and perform an action on all my emails.

The behavior is the same with search results when searching strings within an email.

This behavior of the app makes it nearly impossible, or at least very difficult and tedious for me to organize my emails (because, yes, I do get over 900 emails very quickly that I need to sort).

Is it possible to select all the emails in the inbox or all the emails in a search results with one click?

Best Answer

When you click the checkbox to select all the emails the email content window displays a menu which includes the buttons of options for the selected emails which has a header counting the number of selected emails. You can find the selection url for all the emails just below this header which reads as "Select everything in your Inbox folder".
