269256 - Delete shouldn't open/select another message

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 252981

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, enhancement)

Description

[Martin Petricek]

User-Agent:       Opera/7.54 (Windows NT 5.0; U)  [en]
Build Identifier: version 0.9 (20041103)

When I have turned the preview pane off (so I see only mesage list), I press 
enter to view a message.
But when I decide to delete message, a new one (the one that is next in folder)
is displayed, but I expected the window to close, so I can return back to list 
of emails, but the message that was displayed for the moment is now marked as 
read, so I have tu unmark it ...

I think this behavior may be sometimes (for me almost always) unwanted, I 
expected the window would close (the caption in meny says "Delete" not "Delete 
and move to next massage")

Maybe make it as option somewhere...

This isn't the first time this idea has been raised, but I can't find a bug 
that's been filed about it.  Your preference is definitely a minority opinion; 
there are several bugs open now about how the wrong bug, or (for certain IMAP 
configurations) the same bug, is opened after Delete.
