I have two keyboard macros that I use a lot for this purpose. They
aren't exactly what you want, but close.
`sf` selects all messages with the same From.
`sr` selects all messages with the same Recipient.
Depending on the mailing list, one or the other works. Then, as people
have mentioned, you would command-click to unselect the current one.
Although usually I do this after reading the message, so I just nuke
them all.
I also have `df` and `dr` commands if I want to delete them all
immediately without checking to make sure it selected what I want (`dr`
in particular can be dangerous).
So in ~/Library/Application
Support/MailMate/Resources/KeyBindings/Kee.plist
You enable it in Preferences/General under Custom Key Bindings (just put
in "Kee", or whatever you call it).
Here's the file: (discard the parts you don't want).
```

Like many folks, I receive periodic mails from certain senders (weekly
digest emails, sale info, etc). Is there a way to set up a rule or
something that, when looking at a message, I can instruct MM to delete
all prior messages from the same sender in the current mailbox?
If not, please consider this a feature request. :-)
Thanks.
