Default Taking out an Extra space before some entries in a column

I have an column called "email" with several records having an extra space
at the being of their entry. Is there an automated way to get rid of that
extra space without having to touch each record?

In a helper column =TRIM(A1) and fill down.

Copy Edit Paste Special Values OK to get rid of the formulas and copy
back to the original column..
