Lighthouse has a new layout. Prefer the old one? Return to the old layout, and switch back any time from the link at the top of each page.

Feature Request: Allow keybindings to scroll the message pane and the list of messages

#1812

in my hope to go keyboard only for as much as I can, I have page down and page up scroll the message preview down like below but it's a hack. Ideally I'd like to have it scroll by half a page or so instead of a full pagedown.

// Page Up: \UF72C "\UF72C" = ("scrollPageUp:", "nextMessage:", "previousMessage:"); // Page Down: \UF72D "\UF72D" = ("scrollPageDown:", "nextMessage:", "previousMessage:"); "\" = "loadImagesOnce:";

The following doesn't work at all as the home-end behavior is the normal go to the top of the list and go to the bottom of the list respectively. I'd love for this to scroll the messages list panel by half a visible page as well.
"\UF729" = "scrollLineUp:"; // Home "\UF72B" = "scrollLineDown:"; //End

any ideas?

    Sorry, I don't have any ideas. I tried googling it since it seems that a global “hack” would be best, but it doesn't seem like there is anything that works well. Theoretically, I could override the behavior of paging down just in MailMate, but it's not a high priority.
