Hi,

is this only me, or this new feature that remembers the selection state of a mailbox rather irritating than helpful? I may be completely off, that's why I'm asking here, where potentially more end user feedback is expected than on the development list.

I don't recall such behavior from any other application that I use. Granted, I don't use many desktop applications anymore, but still.

If I go to another mailbox, I'm done with the current mailbox, and vice versa, so I rather expect the first mailbox in a clean state when I return from the second mailbox. This expectation might be different if we had mailboxes opened in tabs, which we don't.

Though this could be considered a bug that needs fixing, I find it especially annoying in a common use case of mine: when I start reading through my daily mail, going through all the folders that my mail is sorted into, I sometimes open a mail that's too long to be read right now. Then I reset the seen flag before I go to another folder. If I go back, that message is now still selected, marking it as seen again.

Again, this could be just my personal preference, and others might welcome this new feature, so I'm looking for some feedback.

Jan.
