[0.1rc1] Select messeges with checkbox for delete!

[euptech]

OK I want to open this up for serious consideration. Many users are used to having a select box to select their mail to delete instead of having to hold down ctrl and select each. A few reasons are that if you release ctrl by accident and select something you lose all previously selected messages. people don't always know they can select multiple messages with ctrl (sure they need to learn but in my case we are talking about loads of old people and country folk!).

I would even except help figuring out where the code is to make the changes and I will implement something... and donate the patch...

Let me know as 5000 existing customers count on you all!!!

anyone have any ideas?

I agree with this.

The new Hotmail live has a good feature that when a message is hovered over it shows you a check box to delete.

I think this is a great idea as well.

To take it a step further when the check box is selected it would not display the mail in the preview pane either as currently you have to select the email, wait for it to display, and then hit delete.

I am in the process of trying to add a select box to select email or to delete theme.
I do not know how to do that

Wondering if anyone gave this concideration or actually implemented this.....

This checkbox tool would be nice addition. If we have a checkbox we can do various task such as,

Select multiple message to send directly to trash or to move them to another folder.

Able to select message for reply.

How about selecting multiple message for batch printing?

And many more....
