How can I mark all emails as 'Read' after IOS Update 5.0 on iPhone?

I just updated to iOS 5.0 on my iphone and when it started up for the first time, all of my emails in a POP account are now showing as unread. The total is 79 emails and I don't want to go one at a time marking each one as read. Is there a way to do it in one sweeping motion?


  1. Press the Edit button in the top-right corner.

  2. Select all of the emails you want to mark as "read".

  3. Press the Mark button in the bottom-right corner.

  4. Choose Mark as Read
