Multiple selection in email app?

How do you do a multiple selection in the default mail app?

My server's spam filter works pretty well, directing most of the spam to my Trash folder, and very little "real" mail. So when I look in my Trash folder I might have 30 messages, and 28 of them are spam. How do I select all 28 of them for deletion in one fell swoop, so I don't have to tediously delete each one one-at-a-time?

Thanks in advance.

Nevermind - I just figured it out. Menu>Delete without anything selected. Puts of a page with a checkboxes. Before I was doing Menu>Delete only from within a message.
