   I don't think this is a bug.  Read message three, hit return, and get
   message four.  (When you delete message two, the current message
   changes to message three.)

arguably, this _is_ the bug.  it certainly bugs the hell out of me that
i have to remember the message number when ever i delete a message, or
is there a way to `read the current message' ?

people should talk to JT before changing mail -- i think he's got some
plans for it also...
