Description

[long]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050719 Fedora/1.7.10-1.5.1

1.7.10 has developed some focus problems in the Mail/News window.  I've tested
this on both Fedora Core 4 and Windows XP SP2.  The problem exhibits by having
to repeatedly click around in the folder list to actually get a folder to open
and show you the contents.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla
2. Window -> Mail & Newsgroups
3. Get into your Inbox
4. Click the header of one of your messages (to focus it there)
5. Click the Trash folder
Actual Results:  
The Trash folder is highlighted however I'm still seeing the contents of my Inbox.


Expected Results:  
I should see the contents of my Trash folder.


Using Modern theme.  Happens with Classic theme also.
