From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; 0.8) Gecko/20010219
BuildID:    

Currently, if I select an inbox to get mail, then hit the next, then hit the
delete button, it thinks I'm trying to delete the inbox rather than the message.
  --> NEXT button, if successful, should bring focus to the next
      message so that the DELETE button can be used on the message.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
0. send yourself some test mail
1. get mail
2. select an inbox (possibly a filter destination folder)
3. hit NEXT button to go to first unread message
4. hit DELETE button to delete message?

Actual Results:  Mozilla acts as if I'm deleting the folder (asks am I sure I
want to move the folder to trash).

Expected Results:  Next button should shift focus to the newly displayed
message, so that delete button will delete the message.

(Messages are sorted forward by date, most recent last)
(Workaround: use pointer to move focus from folder to message.  Not sure how to
do this without pointer.)
We have a lot of focus related bugs logged such as thi ... probably a
duplicate/side issue of 33507

Works for me with RC2
When hit next, the message pane will get the focus, so the delete works fine.
