Details

<2/4/99. Transferred from Netscape internal bug system, bugsplat 331764. I commented out the customer name information. If you need this info, pls refer back to the bugsplat bug number.> Using the messenger client: 1. Click on message 2. Click on EDIT 3. Delete Message shows shortcut as alt-d ------- Additional Comments From granrose 10/28/98 09:48 ------- I'm pretty sure this is something that can be controlled by the Netscape.ad file if <the customer> doesn't want to wait. ------- Additional Comments From hannigan 10/29/98 16:14 ------- assg;d to rvelasco to see if it can be done as granrose suggests ------- Additional Comments From rvelasco 12/29/98 11:12 ------- Talked with Chris McAfee and Seth Spitzer and they warned me that making changes to this file may require the user to add a fix to the fix. The customer will just need to use the Alt-D to delete messages rather than the delete key. Resolving this as INVALID, best solution to this RFE is to "leave well enough alone". ------- Additional Comments From yoel 01/19/99 16:18 ------- I'm sorry but a doing a "fix to a fix" is not something that can be told to the customer. I need to know why this RFE cannot be done, is it that the coding is too exntensive. Is this something that can be latered? ------- Additional Comments From marek 01/25/99 22:22 ------- mass-setting to TFV 5.0 all enhancement requests against Communicator 4.5 ------- Additional Comments From rvelasco 01/26/99 11:49 ------- reassigning to phil. Phil, marek just marked the TFV for this to 5.0, can you reassign this to somebody on your team, thanks. ------- Additional Comments From rvelasco 01/26/99 12:02 ------- reassigning to chofmann for possible reassignment in 5.0 team. Sorry phil, I know you only handle mail/news stuff. ------- Additional Comments From phil 01/26/99 13:41 ------- rvelasco, this sounds like a mail/news FE issue to me. Reassigning to warren for 5.0 --- end transferred information ---

Accelerator key issue for thread pane XUL. Reassigning to chuang
Target Milestone: M7
change target milestone to M7
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Target Milestone: M7 → M9
Move to M9 or until we have hot key support.
Target Milestone: M9 → M13
Move to M13 or until we have Hot key support
We should see what the spec says on this.
The Main Mail Spec (http://gooey/client/5.0/specs/mail/messenger/MailMenus.html) shows the hot key for the Edit/Delete option is "Del".
I think Hot Keys are *in* for PR1. If so, and this does not cause a collision with another Hot Key function, it would be nice to fix this for PR1. However, this bug would not stop us from releasing PR1.

I know I'm doing something evil here, but I really like 8985 better. So I'm marking this as a dupe of that even though this came first. Please forgive me. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 8985 ***
