Description Matthew Barnes 2009-07-13 19:47:23 UTC 
Forwarding this from a Fedora bug:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=511109

Ed: This turned out to be another Caret Mode bug.


Description of problem:
When I click an embedded link in the middle of a long message or digest, the
link opens in a browser, but the message scrolls back to the top and I have to
manually scroll back down to where I was reading.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.26.3-1.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Read a long message, scroll the top of the message out of the display window
2. Click a link
3.

Actual results:
Message scrolls back to top

Expected results:
Message display window does not change

Additional info:
I use the wide view, with the message window at the right of the display.

This has happened for several versions, back to at least F9.
