Details

Now that we're intending to implement Move/Delete/Open operations from the search messages results pane, I'm loggin this bug to track the decision on whether we'll implement a context menu in the results pane. Communicator 4.x had a context menu with items: Open Message, Move Message, Copy Message, Delete Message (not enabled for news)

Summary: Search messages: context menu for search results pane? → Search messages: context menu for search results pane?
Well, it would be nice to have this Comm 4.x feature back. But what i am missing more is the "Go to message folder". Was a very handy feature for newsgroup searches to get to the appropiate thread with only one click - not possible anymore, as the results window does not do threading either...

FE bug, taking from naving. it would be useful. jglick, if you agree can you add this to the spec? "go to folder" is covered in #56419

I think we should add "label" to the context menu.
Agree. Below "Copy to -->".

It should be possible to select one or multiple messages in the search messages dialog and perform *any* operation that is also possible from the regular window (e.g., reply, edit as new, move, copy, label, mark, save, print, delete, even watch thread). Having to create a Search Folder just to e.g., Label=Important a group of messages is too many steps (and the Search Flder then likely needs to be deleted. Too many steps. BTW: Is there an equivalent Thunderbird bug? Could we reassign this one to "Core"? (it might get more "traction" if "both" groups see it)
Thunderbird bug 302609.
