Google Apps Script: GMail CleanUp

I wrote a small script, which can automatically clean Your GMail Inbox.


Update is now available via Scriptgalerie.

Opent the Scriptmanager via the Tools.
Select the onOpen function and click execute, the config screen should appear.

Go to the Scripteditor, Triggers menu and choose "current scripts triggers". Click the link to set up a new trigger, choosing the "moveToTrash" function, a "time-driven" event, "day timer," and then for example "midnight to 1am." Click save and you are done.

You can also setup an email alert if something goes wrong.
