WinNT 4 SP5
When using the arrow keys to scroll through messages in the thread pane (with
the message pane minimized/hidden), the thread pane doesn't reflect your
position until 1-2 seconds after you begin scrolling.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Mail
2. Select a Mail account that has enough messages to require scrolling with
either the arrow keys or the page up/down keys
3. Select a message (single Click - do not open)
4. Using the down arrow key, hold down and scroll to bottom of thread pane
Actual Result: Selected message jumps to next message immediat3ly, then there is
a slight delay before moving to a message somewhere at the bottom of the thread
pane, in the time it took to get to that point in the thread pane.
Expected Result: Message selection should change instantaneously as you scroll
thread pane with arrow or page keys. There should be no delay in message
selection and the app should not appear to *catch up* to the scrolling operation.
I'm told this is by design, so that if you're scrolling through messages really
fast, it doesn't mark them as read and doesn't auto-collect the e-mail addresses
in the messages (which is done by reading the message.)

This should *not* be by design if the message pane is closed, as indicated in
the steps to reproduce.
I get the same thing with 4.x on Windows 2000, so is this by design?
I also see this with Outlook Express 5.5.

First of all, it does *not* happen in 4.x. So, it sounds like you're
misunderstanding the steps to reproduce. Come on by and I'll show you.
With the message pane gone, the product should not load the message at all,
therby removing the opportunity for it to be marked read.
Kevin - I talked with Scott, and I'm clear now that I was talking about
something else. I apologize for the misunderstanding on my part.

I think this is fixed. The behavior is much beter than when this was filed.
