Hello,
To expand on Sarah's comment about using the Shift key to select, you can use
VO-F6 to check which items are selected. This is particularly useful when you
are selecting items in a list non-contiguously, and want to review them. This
woks quite generally for selections of all sorts (e.g., files in Finder,
messages in Mail, tracks in iTunes). You can read an archived list post on
selecting non-contguous items and checking on the selection here:

To read down the thread to my additional comments, press Control+n (for "next" post in
thread). Control+p will let you read the "previous" post in the archived thread. (I
assume you're using Safari; for Internet Explorer use Alt instead of Control for then access key;
and for FIrefox I believe you use Alt+Shift instead of Control).
HTH. Cheers,
Esther

Voiceover does not read the newly selected items when using the shift arrow
keys. It only indicates new items were added to the selection.

To select multiple rows for deletion just hold down the shift key and hit down
arrow. This is if you want to select consecutive rows.

Hi
I am new to the mac and have a few questions:
How do I get voiceover to stop saying blanks when reading rows in the mail app?
How do I select multiple emails for deletion?
Regards
Cheng Ann
