1221178 - Option to open previous message when current message is deleted or moved

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, enhancement)

Description

[Marcus Yoo]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0
Build ID: 20151014143721

Steps to reproduce:

Select a message.
Hit delete to delete the message, or move (either via menu or with drag and drop) the message to different folder.



Actual results:

If the message was the last on the list, the previous message is selected.
Otherwise, it is always the next message that gets selected and displayed.


Expected results:

There should be an option so that the user has the control over this.
The options should be "always select next", "always select previous", "no auto-selection (deselect)", "select next unread", "select the last previous selection", ...

Actual results are confirmed. But this is not a bug and feature improvements.

I've created an extension that implements one of the options "always select previous" : https://addons.thunderbird.net/fr/thunderbird/addon/select-prev-on-delete/
