'You can search for before:2009/01/01 in the top search bar' I tried that but it gave no results (or at most one or two) even right up to 2018 0- I have a quarter of a million emails stored !

I have found a search term that DOES give the required result. It is modeled on "in:anywhere after:2009/1/1 before:2011/1/1" , but it offers only 50 emails to be deleted - requiring a very tedious process to delete ALL the relevant ones. Advice from the web that " All 50 conversations on this page are selected. Select all conversations that match this search" gets offered on ticking the Select-All box, is not realized in MY Gmail. So how can I delete ALL the thousands of unwanted emails in one fell swoop ?

As I said, that option does NOT get offered, so I can not click on it.
