Details

When reading a selected message in a folder if you leave that folder and return Mozilla doesn't remember which message is selected. For example... 1. Select a message to read in the InBox. 2. Go to view some other folder, like Sent. 3. Click back on InBox. Expected action: The last message being viewed in the InBox should be displayed. What it does: Displays the default web message from Mozilla mail. Why this is noteworthy has to do with going through archived mail for information. Such as searching through mailing lists and the like. It is not uncommon to have to work through several subfolders to gather information, and having Mozilla continually forget your place in them is definitely a usability issue. I should note that Netscape 4.7x operated in the manner in which I described above. It would remember where a user had last been for each folder for that session. The hope is that Mozilla should behave in a very similar way.
