You didn't write how you made the selection for the content. There are 2
possibilities. In the main window of SM
1) http://www.triffids.de/pub/screenshot/sm171217.png
This is my way because I use the message pane.

or in window generated by double-click in the thread pane.
2) http://www.triffids.de/pub/screenshot/sm171217-b.png

I have only recently discovered 2) because I use the message pane for
reading. The screenshots are there to minimize the risk of misunderstanding.

Here I assume you meant 2).

You select the account in the folder pane and then do 1).

True, but also for all accounts.

>Then I can still select an individual message

That's not clear at all. Single click in the thread pane? Double-click
to generate a new message window?

>and make a different choice

How? 1)? 2)?

>without affecting the rest of the messages in that account.

I will not speak for 2) because I haven't used it in the past and thus
don't know the behavior of ancient SMs like yours. I could only speak
for my current SM. The behavior may have changed or there may be a bug.
Not too unlikely for Trunk. :)

But I can speak for 1) because I have used that since before SM existed.
In the Suite.

If I'm guessing correctly and you are mostly using 2), we should close
this discussion. But there is one conclusion:

A precise description is essential when discussing issues.
