is there a script out there that would let me select all the

This might get you started (I haven't tested it), and it keeps the
thread vaguely BBEdit-related. You would probably get more help on
the applescript mailing list, although you'd also get lots of
unrelated dissertations on email clients, applescript failings, why
BBEdit or Mail is or isn't cool, and so on. Nothing like that from
me... :-)
