Does BYE! permanently delete blocked emails from every folder?

No. In the inspected 0.1.8 extension, automatic sender cleanup searches Trash. A BYE! sender filter routes matching incoming mail there. Automatic removal of mail already only in Spam, Inbox or Archive is not established. Separate Spam and Trash controls clear the selected folders broadly.

How often does cleanup run?

Fresh installations request a one-minute Chrome alarm; existing alarms can retain an older interval. Chrome can delay checks. A fixed one- or five-minute deletion deadline is not guaranteed.

Does it run when Chrome is closed?

The inspected automatic cleanup runs in Chrome’s extension service worker. It needs an enabled, runnable extension, sign-in, valid Google access, network connectivity and the BYE! backend. Do not rely on cleanup while Chrome is fully stopped or the device is asleep.

How do I set up sender rules?

Open the extension and its dashboard, link the intended Gmail account, then add the sender rule for that account. Review the account and actual sender address carefully. Do not assume Gmail’s built-in block list is automatically imported.

Free supports one managed Gmail account and one active blocked sender. Paid plans offer additional account management and unlimited sender rules; check your selected plan when upgrading.

Can clearing Spam delete mail from other senders?

Yes. The separate folder-clearing query is not sender-restricted. Review selected accounts before using it. Permanent deletion cannot be undone through Gmail’s normal recovery flow.

What if a blocked message remains?

Check the account, sender, folder, extension sign-in and Google authorization. Mail only in Spam is outside the inspected scheduled Trash query. Repeatedly waiting five minutes will not fix a folder-scope mismatch. Contact support if cleanup fails.

What Gmail access does BYE! need?

The inspected code requests full-mail access including permanent deletion, filter-management access and profile/email identity scopes. It sends OAuth tokens to BYE!’s backend. Read the scope and data-flow details.

What if Google shows a verification warning?

Stop and ask support to confirm current verification status. Do not bypass a warning based on a marketing claim.

What are the prices and trial terms?

Plans are advertised at US $4.99/month or US $45.99 billed yearly (about $3.83/month). The annual plan saves about 23% versus twelve monthly payments. Check checkout for the total and any applicable taxes.

The seven-day trial ends on limited Free without a charge. A paid plan starts only if you choose to upgrade and pay. Free includes one managed Gmail account, one active blocked sender and limited folder clearing. Review the limits shown in the extension before clearing a folder. For paid subscription cancellation or billing questions, contact support.
