144077 - delete after select-all doesn't always works

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 144075

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Jo Hermans]

Build 2002051006 (1.0RC2) on Windows NT, but I've seen it in RC1 too

- open mail/news window
- click on a folder which isn't empty
- make sure that the focus lies on the message-pane (top-right). Do this by
clicking in the empty area on the bottom (easier when there are less than 8
messages in the folder), but don't select a message
- select all messages with the menu or the shortcut (ctrl-a) - all messages
become selected
- note that the delete button on the toolbar becomes inactive, but the
delete-item in the Edit-menu remains active (this is a bug on its own)
- although all messages are slected, you can't delete them

Workaround: when you select a message first, and then press ctrl-a, it's
possible to delete them

I've seen these both with IMAP-folders as with local mail folders (don't know
about POP), so I assume it's a GUI-problem.
