And here folks is one reason I do not have all my cursors stuck
together. I get thhis kind of behavior quite often, and not just in
mail. When it happens, I simply move vo cursor to one of thhe other
ones (keyboard focus, or mouse cursor) and the problem goes away. I
don't know what causes this behavior, but sometimes it is quite
anoying. However, generally, simply moving vo to another cursor
solves the problem quite well. Lately I've been having this
difficulty in safari. When clicking on links that pop-up windows, or
load audio contents, safari gets stuck in the same rut, and then
routing vo to another cursor is the only way to fix it other than
closing and reopening safari. <sigh> But it's only a minor anoyance.

Tom,
I believe that you are confused by this thread. I understand the
concept of moving items between mailboxes and such and the idea of
selecting all messages in a specific mailbox as a way to delete
them. What we are speaking of here is the "Erase Deleted Messages"
menu item under the MailBox menu. This menu item has a keyboard
shortcut of cmd+k as well. When you attempt to use the cmd+k
method, which of course has the fewest key strokes, you get the
issue we were speaking of. It says "Dialog for InBox, Messages
Table" or something very similar. It appears to stay locked in
this screen until you do something that redraws the window or VO is
turned off and on again. Closing the InBox and re-opening it seems
to be one method that works to remedy this.
