    Default Email-Select multiple messages for deletion?

    The BB doesn't have the same spam filters as my "macbook" email, so I get a lotta junk. I don't necessarily want to go into the BIS settings and create filters, until I get more of a feel for how the BB handles my multiple email addresses.

    Is there a way to select multiple messages for a mass-delete? Thanks once again for any help

    You can hold down the shift key while scrolling, just like on Windows. You can also select a date bar, push menu, and select delete prior.

    Thank you! I totally forget about Shift-scroll, as it's ALT/Option-scroll on a Mac.

    OK I must be an ***** because this doesn't work for me.

    I hover the trackball over a message, hit the SHIFT key, and scroll, and nothing else highlights. Even with the SHIFT key pressed, whatever message I've scrolled to (the last one in this case) opens when I hit MENU or just releasing the SHIFT key.

    What am I doing wrong? Screenshots/pictures would be great. Remember I'm on 4.3 NOT 4.5.

    Maybe the technique just doesn't work on Pearls. I don't have one to compare. I'm running OS 4.2.2.196. I don't think a screen shot would help; you are doing what I described.
