Description Matthew Barnes 2006-10-04 09:12:12 UTC 
I would like to re-raise the issue in bug #216485 and get a second opinion from the current maintainers.  Some downstream folks are making noise about it again, and I agree that the current behavior doesn't seem right.  Bug #216485 has a patch that seems reasonable (attachment #61803 [details]).

To recap:

Description of Problem:
Using Select Thread on the Edit menu, or the Ctrl-H keybinding does
not select the entire thread. Instead, the currently selected message and
messages below it in the thread heirarchy are selected.

This is agains 1.0, but that isn't an option in the Version list yet.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Find a thread with at least three posts. (i.e. A message, a reply to
that message, and a reply to the reply.)
2. Select the reply to the message
3. Press Ctrl-H

Actual Results:
The reply to the message and the reply to the reply are selected.

Expected Results:
All messages in the thread are selected

How often does this happen? 
Always
