It is important to address the issue directly with your friend and ask her to stop sending the offensive jokes. This shows that you do not condone or tolerate racist behavior, and it also gives you the opportunity to explain why the jokes are offensive. Additionally, it is important to inform your boss about the situation so they are aware of any potential risk to the company's reputation or harassment issues in the workplace. Simply deleting the messages is not a proactive solution and could potentially make the situation worse if someone were to later discover the emails. And while it is true that your company may not have the right to read your emails, it is still important to maintain a professional environment and ensure that no one is subjected to harassment or discrimination.
