Just as you can right click on "trash" to delete messages, will thunderbird be adding the right click on "sent" to delete sent messages?
Without opening the "Trash" mailbox you can right click on "trash" and empty all the messages at once. When you right click on "sent" there`s no such option for emptying all the "sent" messages at once. Will Thunderbird be adding a "empty sent " button in the near future or will we have to continue highlighting all the messages to be deleted? Thanks

I don't understand the use case for "empty" being available in other folders. I can't imagine why I'd want a "delete all" shortcut for the Sent folder. Those messages are part of a conversation; why would you want to delete them en masse? Trash, OTOH, contains stuff you've already decided you don't want.
Anyhow, point at a message in the Sent folder (or whichever folder you're interested in), do ctrl+a on the keyboard, and then the delete button will zap all the selected files.
