(Use "[" for the "previous" versions of those commands.) This way I have an open message, and dispose of it by either keeping or deleting it while simultaneously opening the next message. If you substitute Cmd on place of Ctrl in those commands, it moves to the next (or previous) message whether read or not. With a message selected in the list, try Cmd-O to open, Cmd-T to mark read, or Cmd-Delete to delete. Of course there is nothing wrong with double-clicking to open a message (except for the already-discussed bug that processes them twice). -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
