User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_8) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.168 Safari/535.19 Steps to reproduce: Selected all messages in a folder. Hit Shift-Delete to delete them all Hit n to go to next unread message in other folders. Actual results: Nothing. Did not got to next unread message. Expected results: Should have gone to next unread message in another folder. More Info: - This is a recent bug. I've allowed auto-updates to new versions of Thunderbird for several months, so I'm always running the latest version. This problem occurs in version 11.0 and in version 12.0.1, but it hasn't been around for much longer than that. I'm not sure what version I was using when it last worked, but it was within the past month or so. - I'm using Mac OS X Snow Leopard - Works fine if I delete the messages one at a time via Shift-Delete and then hit n once the folder is empty. Problem only occurs if I select all (via Cmd-A, or via multiple Shift-Down arrows) and then Shift-Delete then hit n.

I cannot reproduce this with 52.2.0 on Windows. Can you reproduce on Mac?

Still happens to me most days. I'm on TBird 52.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan. I tried to repeat it just now, and it didn't happen. So perhaps there's more to the pattern. Typically, I use "n" to cycle through all my folders that have unread messages, reading and sometimes filing or deleting them. My last folder is a catchall that contains mostly spam, so I usually end up selecting many and deleting them all with Shift-Delete. Then I type "n" again to cycle around to the top because by then more new messages have typically come in. Or I hit Shift-F5 to fetch all new messages from all POP accounts, and then hit "n". At least once per day, I notice that "n" does nothing in this case, even though there ARE new unread messages in the earlier folders. If I then click on a different folder and hit "n" again, it works fine. And if I always make a habit of selecting all but one of the messages in the catchall folder, then hitting Shift-Delete, which leaves the one last message highlighted, then hitting Shift-Delete again to delete just that one message, then hitting "n", it works fine. --Fred
