(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Spike Ilacqua]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.8
Build Identifier: Thunderbird/version 0.7 (20040616)

If a View other than "All", for example "Unread", is selected and you select a
different folder, either by clicking on it, or with the arrow keys, the focus is
placed in the "Subject or Sender contains" text box.  This means that the folder
has to be reselected be for commands such as "Select All" can be used. If the
View is "All" the focus stays on the folder.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose a View other than "All".
2. Click on a different folder.


Actual Results:  
The focus was in the "Subject or Sender contains" text box.

Expected Results:  
Remained focused on the just selected folder.

This is Seamonkey bug 191813, which might be fixed by Neil's patch to 
bug 179050.

Reproduced symptom in TB 0.7.  Confirming.

I am not able to reproduce this problem using Thunderbird 1.0.5 or 1.0+0715 
(trunk equiv to 1.1a2 build).  Spike Ilacqua, are you still experiencing the 
problem?
