with nightly update 20090917 still clicking on an email does not open it screen wide but just leaves blank the folder section making the emails of the folder to desappear from the screen. The regression continues.

with nightly update 20090923 still clicking on an email in any folder does not open it screen wide, opens a new mail window and the folder box becomes white and aprently empty.  More or less the same problem reported earlier but with another problem of going very slows in deleting emails, which is another regression.

With nightly update of Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20091015 Shredder/3.1a1pre
The problem remains.  It is impossible to open an email screen wide and clicking on an email, in any folder, cuases the folder screen to become blank and opens a new window also in blank.  Folder requires right click to open the folder.

With version Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20091108 Minefield/3.7a1pre, this problem has desappeared if opening the message in an esisting messge window, not when using the other two options on the reading & display tgab of the advanced tab of the options.
Other problems appear in the opened window as tabs for deletion do not delete the displayed opened message and go to the next one, which must be done manually. Is it necessary to submit a new bug for this?

Apologize for error in the version reported above in comment 4.  The correct version should be: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20091108 Shredder/3.1a1pre

ok so you still have the issue; Question , do you have a theme or extensions installed on your machine ?

I think we already know about this one - serach before opening the new bug.

Now I've re-read this, this is a duplicate of bug 516912 where anything generally relating to actions in tabs is broken in trunk builds.
