There are two ways to select messages in Netscape Communitator. I'm not sure what they call the various parts of the window, but the part I have up top, with the list of all the messages -- You can just select those, push the shift key down, and select away, and then hit the delete key. The other way to select the email is in the reading window, where again, you can just push the delete key. Once you are done perusing the day's mail, you can open up the Trash folder, and see if you deleted anything by mistake. Once you're sure it all goes, Empty Trash and it is gone forever. Hope this helps, Valorie
