Hey everyone,  
Does anyone know of a way to quickly delete all the messages in a folder in gMail? My spam folder has about 4000 e-mails, and I don’t feel like going page by page and deleting them all.

The reason I would like to keep the folder empty is that important mails do occassionaly go in there, and I would like to start off with a clean spam folder that I can monitor more closely 🙂

Thanks!
