How do I select All?

There is no Select all button in Windows Live Mail 2011 or 2012. These keystrokes work in most lists in Windows:

  • Click on an item to select it;
  • Click on an item to select it, hold Ctrl down and click on another to select both;
  • Click on an item to select it, hold Shift down and click on another to select both and all in between;
  • Click on an item to select it, hold Ctrl down and press A to select All items.

Press DEL to delete the selection.
To delete all the messages in a Deleted items or Junk e-mail folder, click on the folder name and then on the little ‘x’.
