I just hold down the Shift key OR the Ctrl key while clicking.

The Shift key though works a little different. It provides a way to
highlight a whole list. You can test this out, Bob. Highlight one
message at the top of the list. Then hold down the Shift key. Next
decide upon which will be the bottom message and click upon it. It
will make Outlook Express highlight the top message, every message
in between the top and the bottom message, and the bottom message.

Try it a few times if you've not done it before.

Then release the Shift key and click on any message anywhere to
release all the highlights.
