That's not what I see. If I select a different folder and do nothing else, one message is highlighted but not selected.

Yes, but my point is that "do nothing" should also select the message list by default. That seems to me the more natural policy. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
