Hello How to select (highlight) several messages in the inbox to delete them? I don't want to delete one at a time, it is very time consuming. A lay question, but I can't highlight it.

Hold down the CTRL key and left-click to select individual messages

If you would like to select all messages, the Ctrl + A combination will be helpful.

And I'll add one more using Shift Namely, you click on the first one, then press Shift and on the last one you want to select The above can be combined with Ctrl to select several ranges - I will add that this is typical behavior for the ListView control, which controls both the folder windows and the OE window Happy Christmas

I already know you have to click on each message. Then they light up. You can't pull because there is a prohibition sign.
