After navigating through the mailboxes list or even just
clicking on a particular folder to select the folder and then
hitting "space" to read a message within that folder MailMate does
not change focus to the messages list.
There are multiple unexpected results that can happen from
that:
- some message-based key commands fail to operate on the
currently viewed message (such as @U to mark unread)
- arrows change the mailbox rather than which message is
currently viewed
Combining those, when reading through my smart mailbox that
creates multiple sub-folders, if I don't remember to "tab" into the
message list after selecting a mailbox, @U doesn't mark the message
I just read as unread, and down-arrow changes the mailbox so that
when I return to the particular sub-folder of the smart mailbox the
now-read message is no longer there and I have to go find it in the
actual mailbox.
For expectations, after performing folder/mailbox operations and
issuing a command that then begins operating at an individual
message level, I would expect the focus to change to message
level/pane so that message-based commands work without requiring an
explicit change of focus.
Or did I just miss an option or key binding I can set?
