Delete All?

I suspect IPad assumes that bulk deletes will be handled by the mail system that you are linked to such as gMail, AOL mail, Yahoo Mail. I have Gmail, Road Runner Mail, both of which auto forward my mail to my ICloud account. The latter is what I have connected to both my IPhone and IPad. If I need to bulk delete email (I don't get that much mail) I go to my PC and sign-in to my icloud account and do the deletes from there.

You can fairly quickly delete mails albeit one at a time by simply swiping the index entry from right to left.

It would be nice for the IPad app to allow bulk deletes but have yet to find a way.
