Summary	0005784: Be able to select multiple emails
Description	In most email clients it is possible to select multiple emails at once to move or delete in bulk. Most common way is to use shift to mark all items between the first and second clicked item or to use the control key to select single items. So this is a feature request to be able to use shift and control to select multiple items in the webmail client.

mstinsky 2023-06-13 08:55 reporter ~0017016	Oh. After you mentioned "selection view", I was wondering what that is. After trying around a bit I found that the person icon next to the mail 'hides' the checkbox which I never saw while working with SOGo. So the feature request here is irrelevant even though I would argue that the ux is not intuitive when it comes to finding this.

mstinsky 2023-06-13 09:06 reporter ~0017017	While thinking about it a bit more. From a ux standpoint it would be better to be able to use shift and ctrl always without the need to enter a "selection view" by having to checkmark one mail.
