How to Delete a Filter in Google Gmail

Google Gmail allows users to create customizable filters. Filters can automatically sift through mass amounts of email and mark them as spam, move them to specific folders, and/or delete them. Configuring filters in Gmail helps keep your email in check. Once you are finished using a particular filter, deleting them in Gmail is easier than creating them.
