There is something definitely weird with the cursor, but as you say not
serious. I was just looking at my list of messages as I move the cursor
around. The cursor is most commonly an arrow. However when I move it over
the far right had side of the far right hand column header (categories in my
case) it turns to a hand. I can then move it across the header row and the
hand remains until I get to the message status column (third from the left)
when the cursor turns back into an arrow. Moving the cursor into the header
row to the left of the message status column or anywhere between the middle
of the subject column (third from right) and 2/3 through the categories
column keeps the arrow cursor. Otherwise I get the hand cursor and it will
stay a hand even when I move it through the subject, send, and categories
columns. Moving in out of the header row anyplace causes the cursor to
return to the arrow.
So I guess it is not fixed for me either, it just manifests itself
differently. Does the MBU team have a bead on this problem or would you
like more blow-by-blow descriptions as to when it is strange?
