Problem with kmail.

[Dragseth Roy Einar]

Hi.

First of all, thanks for all the great work you all are doing in maintaining 
this beast called KDE!

I've got a problem which can be described as follows:

When I've read a message in my inbox and move to the next unread one by 
hitting the +-button, then the message I'm moving from isn't deselected. So 
when I hit the delete button to delete the current message I'm also deleting 
the one I read before.  This is quite annoying, esp. when the previous one is 
outside the visible part of the message list, then you have no clue that you 
deleted another mail too.  I can work around this by hitting + - LeftArrow - 
RightArrow as that will clear the previous selection, but it becomes a bit 
strainful on my fingers when I come to work on Monday morning...

Anyone else seeing this?  I could not find any bugreports related to this at 
the kde website so I thought I'd ask here first.


  KDE Version  1.11.0 (KDE 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), 4.2.0-15.fc10 Fedora)
  Application  E-Mail Client
  Operating System  Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27.15-170.2.24.fc10.x86_64
  Compiler  gcc

I encountered this problem, although it was intermittent.  I made the 
problem go away by reassigning the Go to Next Unread Message function 
to my `=' key instead of my `+' key.

I have no idea why it was occurring in the first place.

    KDE 4.2.1
    KMail 1.11.1

Hmm, could it be that it interprets Shift-<select another mail> as "add to 
selection"?

This has just been fixed in KDE SVN, to be available in KDE 4.2.2

Is this worth backporting to our 4.2.1 update?
