Table: Table of Contents Mouse Bindings
Button Action
First Select and display a message.
First-Drag Select a range of messages.
Shift-First Modify the selected range.
Second-Drag Scroll the display.
Third Select but don't display the message.
Several of the operations on messages can be applied to a set
of selected messages.
To select a set, drag the mouse across a range of messages
while holding down the first mouse button.
Holding down the Shift key while you click (or drag)
toggles the selected state of a message.
The toggle behavior means you can unselect messages to remove them
from a range,
and you can select messages and add them to a range.
This lets you create a discontinuous selection.
Hint:
The table of contents comes from both the MH scan and
inc programs, depending on circumstance.
If you define a
custom scan format,
set the same format in your
MH profile for both inc and scan.
