Auto-Delete Spam in Gmail
If you get a lot of spam email like me, its annoying to delete spam emails every so often in Gmail.  Here is a way to auto-delete your spam by setting up a filter:


(1) Create a new filter (Go to Settings > Filters > Create a new filter)

(2) In the Has the words text box, put "is:spam"




(3) Click Next Step and you will see a waring message, click OK

(4) Then check the Delete it checkbox




Now, when a spam message comes in it will go directly to the trash.  You can still check it to see if a good email was wrongly tagged as a spam email, but the trash will automatically delete messages 30 days old.  Now you don't have to see your spam folder increase everyday!
