If you ctrl-click to deselect a message, then context menu delete either
that message or another message, a message will be selected, on 78 and
linux, for me.

Clearly the best way is to ctrl-click deselect permanently, but the
incomprehensible and unusable feedback here has resulted in it being
accomplished another way.

Title:
  Have option to not automatically open next email

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird:
  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  Confirmed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I have found that with Thunderbird if I open an email and then press a
  button such as the "Junk" or "Delete" button, it will automatically
  move on and open the next email. Now as I get a lot of spam on this
  email in the inbox with the spam filter not properly configured yet,
  it would be very useful if there were an option to disable this
  automatically opening the next email feature. So that it would just go
  to the blank screen in the email display section. Quite a few people I
  know for similar reasons say they would like an option like this so
  that malicious emails don't accidentally get opened.
