User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040517 Camino/0.8b Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040517 Camino/0.8b It would appear that after one performs a search via Tools=>Search Messages, one cannot select all returned items through an (Apple) + A. One can, however, manually select the messages via the shift and (Apple) keys. This seems interesting, for an (Apple) + A on the Inbox items list will select all items. I would not know if one cannot perform a control + A on Windows to achieve the same effect, so one will need to verify whether that works or not. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Perform an inbox search via Tools=>Search Messages; make sure the search returns results. 2. Attempt to select all of the items in the list by performing (Apple) + A Actual Results: Thunderbird does not select all items. Expected Results: Thunderbird should select all items.
I see this bug too in the 20040526 nightly. Not only does Apple + A not work, but if you Edit -> Select -> All using the menu nothing happens except that the Edit Menu remains highlighted (not open) until another menu is used.
Confirmed using Thunderbird-Mac/0.6. KhanReaper, please also test this using Mozilla MailNews.
