Hello everybody,

Is there any script or any method to delete mails with
a particular word from the inbox ?

The particular word shall be present either in the subject
of the mail or in the body/contents of the mail in inbox.

Thx in advans,

In order to delete mails with a particular word in subject/body/sender etc., try creating a filter and move/mark it with the any existing label( or u may choose your own label name by creating a new one) then delete all mails from the newly created label. Hope it helps!!!

You can skip the labeling part and simply have the filter delete the emails that contain the particular word.  May I ask why you want to delete these emails?  Are they spam?  If so, the better option would be to mark them as spam so that Gmail will learn that you don't want them on it's own, then you don't have to create a filter at all.
