Subject: very odd thing in mail

Hi all,
I was again working with a friend on his mac, and we started to tackle mail.
Since his wife uses the computer more often, they set him up a smart mailbox
to capture all his messages, but mail is primarily under her account. I
suggested making him his own account on the mac, so that we can set up mail
to work normally, remove the favorites bar in safari, let him add only his
own favorites, and all that.

Now, the oddity. In my own mail, I hear something like this as I move
through my inbox:
unread button, sender name, subject, timestamp However, in my friend's smart
mailbox, vo read things much more like a table:
blank, blank, blank, unread, sender name, subject, timestamp and, if you
interacted with the table, you could vo-left/right through these items,
something I can't do in my own mail program. Is this strange behavior normal
and my mail program is the oddity, or is it something to do with the smart
mailbox? Once I get his mail set up in a fresh account on the mac, will it
behave like that smart mailbox or like my own? I'd rather it be like mine,
as I found his setup far too verbose and confusing (things read differently
depending on if he interacted or not, and he's still new to the mac, so I'd
rather not have to deal with details like that). Any suggestions would be
helpful. Thanks.


Have a great day,
