By accident I got a lot of emails moved to the Trash folder. There I can see them with the "Trash" label, as well as the original label. But it seems impossible to select all mails in trash with a certain label, and then move them anywhere.
Is there any way to just remove the "Trash" label from all emails, so they will only appear in their original labels?
You can search for all mails in trash that have a certain label like this:
in:trash label:your_custom_label
Once you search for them, click on the select box and select All. Then, click on the Move to Inbox button to get them out of Trash. To move them to their label (i.e. remove them from inbox), from inbox, search for the respective mails and archive them.
The answer above moved them to the Inbox, but you want them to stay where they were with original labels but just have the trash label removed (get them out of the trash). Create a new label (I called mine RemoveTrash). Select all e-mails in the trash, or custom search in Trash and select those e-mails, then choose Move To buttom and select RemoveTrash (or your label name to do this). When it's done, just remove that label as one of your label options and it removes it from all those e-mails AND the trash label is gone to (that was removed when you did the Move To function). Back to where you where with these e-mails now out of the trash with your original labels.
