After updating to 5.4.3 (16.12.3?), the "Delete (Shift + Supr)" shortcut that I've been using since KDE3 stopped working in the messages list. Apparently there's another "Delete the message" shortcut that I tried setting to (Shift + Supr), but then it won't let me delete more than one message at a time and also it will always show a popup asking for confirmation, without an option to "Not show again". Extremely annoying regression sadly.
Today I realized that the multiple selection delete works, and that the problem is that when you click on a message in the list, it gets "deselected" or "defocused" for some reason, which didn't happen before. So if you for example try to select multiple messages by holding Shift and clicking on one of them, they are not "focused" until you do it twice. What's the point of this behaviour?
I can confirm this behavior with kmail 5.5.1 If it is intended then it is annoying.
