    To place a check mark to the left of ALL of your

    emails click on the arrow just to the right of the

    empty box above your list of emails and then click

    on ALL..

    can remove the check mark by clicking on it...

    Clicking on the down arrow to the right of the above

    Placing the check mark in the empty box

    instead of the first option does not normally
