I see it the same as Patcick does.  When focus is in the folders pane,
there is a bar that highlights the current folder.  that bar changes
color to indicate focus or not.  While focus is in the messages pane,
there is a bar highlighting the current message.  It shows focus by
changing color.   When focus is in the preview pane, there's nothing to
highlight.  Therefore no visual feedback.  I don't know what could be
highlighted to show focus.  Perhaps activating a cursor would do?   As I
use a wheel mouse for most movement, it's not a problem for me.  Just
wanted to confirm the results on Evo 2.28.2.
