It's a standard list view and therefore the normal keys should work, 
that is, shift to select a range and the command key to select/unselect 
individual emails. I'm actually not sure if this works differently in 
VoiceOver, but I would assume that it, at least, works similar to how it 
would work in the Finder.

If you need to delete everything in a mailbox then the context sensitive 
mailbox menu has en “Empty” menu item. There's a hidden preference 
to enable this for any mailbox. I would not use that if not really 
needed. “Select All” (in the View menu) and delete should be good 
enough in most cases and less likely to happen by accident.
