I can’t delete all mail on my iPad. It will do it if there aren’t too many. I have to delete each one separately

How can I delete large amounts of mail on my iPad? Select all and clicking trash doesn’t work if there are a lot of emails to delete.

iPad, iOS 13

When I have a large number of emails, for example I had 50 at one time, it took a few seconds for them to be deleted when I tapped select all and then delete all. How long did you wait before you noticed that they weren’t getting deleted?
