In the scenario you describe, a "select all" option would be handy.

As I think we discussed already, the short answer is no.  Longer answer is that 
there's a patch that will let you delete ALL emails in given folder but my 
understanding (and correct me if I'm wrong) is to mark a bunch for deletion 
then hit a 'delete selected' button.  Here, first of all, I'd ask you to think 
about the work involved.  Say you have 8 messages to delete.  So you'd 
presumably click 8 times to choose them, then a 9th to delete.  The way the Pre 
works you can simply swipe to delete from you inbox, thus you can do it in 8 
actions vs. 9.  I understand its not exactly the same, and it would be nice to 
have the options, but until there's a patch or enhancement to the mail app, I'm 
afraid you're out of luck..  I think Palm could do this easily by letting userd 
mark messages by tapping on a messag while holding the orange key down, the 
just providing an additional icon in the inbox for multiple deletes...

Is there a way to erase multiple emails on the Pre. I had to put my 

gmail on manual update because, unlike when it came in on the Treo Pro, 

the messages never go away - and if you open one, read it and delete it, 

there seems no way to make it simply go to the next message. But on the 

Pro, I could mark a bunch of messages and delete 'em if I wanted.
