Description Joe Shaw 2004-02-17 18:03:52 UTC 
When in the message list, pressing the delete key causes the current
message to be deleted, the next message to be skipped, so that the third
message is selected.  Using ctrl-d though correctly deletes the current
message and selects the next one.

I am using the snaps from 17 February, this didn't happen in the previous
snaps I ran from 13 February.

At first I thought this was a threading issue, but it's not-- this
happens regardless of threading or sort method.

*** bug 254770 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 3 Joe Shaw 2004-02-24 17:27:18 UTC 
I reopened bug 254770 because they're not quite the same bug from what
I can tell.

It does seem to work nicely if you select more than one message and
press delete.  (It marks them as deleted and moves to the next
message)  So it appears to only be a thing with single messages.

ok, fixed in CVS. the logic to skip to the next message was being run
twice.
