In the upper-right corner of every message in Inbox, there is a bin icon. When you hover over it five options will appear:

Delete only from here - only deletes the email from Woodpecker

Delete from here and my email Inbox - deletes this specific message from Woodpecker Inbox and your mailbox

Watch out! This option removes messages also from your mailbox. That means that you won't be able to access it through your email provider and restore it.

Delete all past and future emails from this prospect from here - deletes all emails from this prospect and prevents any future emails you might get from them from appearing in Woodpecker Inbox (They will still come to the inbox on your email server).
Delete all past and future emails from this domain from here - deletes all emails from any prospects sharing this domain and prevents any future emails you might get from them from appearing in Woodpecker Inbox (They will still come to the inbox on your email server).

GDPR encrypt this prospect - deletes all emails and encrypts your prospects' data, changing their status to BLACKLISTED. Learn more about how to use GDPR encryption and unsubscribe.


Before deleting any email you will be prompted to confirm your action:

Deleting email screen with "Yes, I'm sure" button

As can be seen on the above screen deleting correspondence from Woodpecker Inbox is permanent.

After deleting some email from a prospect a message will appear in the campaign summary, on the list of prospects that have been contacted:

Prospect with the information "Some emails from this prospect were deleted from Woodpecker"

In case you decide to use the option to GDPR encrypt your prospect, their data will be hashed in Woodpecker and will be seen as such in the campaign:
