No check boxes in Windows Mail

One of the Vista features that is great for Tablet PCs is the check boxes
next to file and folder icons in Windows Explorer, allowing a user to select
several objects with the pen:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro.../tabletpc.mspx
(activated using Folder Options | Use check boxes to select items).

Another place these would be very useful is in Windows Mail, but I don't see
any such functionality.

Is there some way to turn on check boxes next to messages in Windows Mail?
If not, it would be good to convince Microsoft to add them in the
"Customize" options on the toolbar.

Part of ther shell but not part on WinMail.

It would be good to add the option of check boxes in Windows Mail. After
you get used to check boxes with a Tablet PC in Windows Explorer their
absence is very noticeable in Windows Mail.
