Err I just noticed it's not really the same thing... mine was about multiple 
selections in the mime tree (I did not specified that method but it's just a 
detail).

Now I'm not sure if I understand you... how woudl that work? 
Because the list of messages in kmail appears similary to the  "Info List 
View" mode in konqueror and you cannot use that 'lasso' method with this view 
simply because whenever you click the view, you click one specific icon, so 
draging the mouse means moving that item...

I may be missing something though.
