I've a POP account grouped by Date. For today there's only a single message with
a date from the future (don't know if this matters). This message is displayed
in the preview window.
As a new message appears the new message is selected, but still the old message
is showed in the preview window

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Group by Date
2. Show message in preview window
3. Wait for new message to arrive

Actual Results:  
New message is selected in but previous message is shown in the preview window

Expected Results:  
New message should be shown in the preview window

Do you mean the selection moves automatically from the previous to the next?  I 
am not seeing that behavior.  Once I manually select the new message, it appears 
as expected in the message pane.

Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean with previous and next message. 
In the Today Group there's only a single message with a date from the future
which is selected and shown in the preview pane. As soon as a new message
arrives the new message is selected but in the preview pane there's still the
content of the message from the future shown.
It seems like this only happens if you have exactly one message in the today
group which has to be from the future.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
