"Select All" function only select one screen full of emails, instead of all.

"Select All" function only select one screen full of emails, instead of all of them, on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 running Android  v5.1 (Lollipop ). This should be looked into and fixed.

It's actually working perfectly. That is not a bug, but it's by design, so that people do not delete all messages, thinking that they are deleting only those on the screen.
"All" can mean different things.
You can change that behavior in Settings -> message list -> 'Select All" means .....

Heh! (I won't claim my copyright on it.  )

Just a small grammar correction (actually two in one) for the "Q":
'Select All' function only select one screen full of emails, instead of all.
'Select All' function selects only one screen full of emails, instead of all.
(I know you copied it verbatim from this thread, but that reference is lost in the FAQ.)
