Which build of Thunderbird?

This works for me.  Note that the Next and Previous buttons are designed to go 
to Next and Previous UNREAD message.  The Go To Previous Unread function does 
not skip back to an earlier folder.

I think the Reporter would like a previous/next button for all mail, not only
unread mail. I suggest either changing the subject+severity or -->WFM

That would be bug 235666.

As reported, this bug is invalid.
