Deleting multiple SMS

[avu3]

This feels like a dumb question to me, but I haven't found an answer. I'm not sure if this is an Android question, a 2.2.2 question or a Nexus 1 question, forgive me if I'm in the wrong forum.

I have a rooted N1 on 2.2.2

No extra overlays or anything, just the stock OS/stock SMS app.

I can't figure out how to delete more than one thread at a time.

I've recently come from an HTC with Sense to the N1.

With Sense there was an extra option in the menu which put you into a delete mode.

I've also found in email the check box/delete tool, but nothing like that seems to exist in SMS.

Is that right, or am I missing something?

I get several SMS every hour from monitoring software. When I am away from my phone for a few hours 20 or 30 can build up (say, I sleep for a few hours). The press hold, select delete, confirm is tedious to clear a group of messages.

Thanks for your insight,
Scott

I don't use the built in messaging client cause it's missing lots of basic feature.
Use handcent, theres a batch mode.
