Description C.Anne Wilson 2007-02-09 13:51:28 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

Settings			Action				Message Jump?

				Composing Message		Yes

Do not loop
Jump to first unread or new	New mail arrives		No
  message			Some filtered to wastebin
				Composing new message		No

Jump to first unread or new	Some filtered to wastebin
  message			Composing message		Yes

Loop in current folder		New mail arrives		No
Jump to first new message	Some filtered to wastebin
				Reading a message+new mail	Yes
				Composing a message+new mail	Yes - to previous-read message	

Loop in current folder		New mail arrives		No
Jump to last selected message	Some filtered to wastebin
				Composing message+new mail	Yes

Loop in all folders		New mail arrives		No
Jump to first unread or new	Some filtered to wastebin
  message			Focus on another application	Jumps forward

Loop in all folders		New mail arrives		Yes
Jump to first new message					Sometimes jumps to previous message
								Message being read is duplicated


Loop in all folders		New mail arrives		No
Jump to last selected message	Some filtered to wastebin
				Composing a message+newmail	Yes
				Reading a message+new mail	Yes
				Also, read threads close

Seems to be some relevance in the focus being away from the main window?  I have seen it when reading a link in FF and also while playing kpatience - the message jumps as above.

View report above in fixed font to make sense of it

Sorry, but I'll close this report as invalid.
It is not possible to view this as fixed font as this is a HTML page.
Additionally, many of the points you mentioned are already covered in other bug reports.
