    How doI delete groups of email without ding them one by one?
    I have years of email messages in myway account and I want 90 percent of them deleted. However, the only way I seem to be able to do this is message by message. You used to able to highlight a group and delete. I can't do this or am I overlooking this capability?

    You can delete groups by searching and deleting or simply highlighting and deleting using AOL. What are you using?

    Depends on the e-mail client you use. Usually you can click on one, scroll down and shift-click on another to highlight a block of items.

    I was using Firefox. Now I have a new computer and I really didn't want all of the stuff on myway on this computer but no such luck. Now I have to go through Google to bring it up (myway won't come up on internet explorer). I have to highlight one at a time and delete that way and I think that there should be a way to highligh a whole group and then delete.
