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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1653351 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.
