For me (sawfish, point-to-focus) the main window stayed focused. I
still believe this is a WM issue.

That is weird - file a bug report. I've never seen that as I rarely
control-xcv to copy, only the highlight/middle click method (I find it
faster).

Maybe this was recently fixed, or your keyboard is mapped differently to
mine, but this works for me in the 2001-09-18 snapshot.

Why do you have more than one INBOX? I use IMAP, and my folder tree is
like this:
+ OneEighty
|-INBOX
|- Archive
|- Mailing Lists
| |- Evolution
| \- Galeon
...
\-Sent
Do you run multiple IMAP accounts for each mailing list?

Hmm... a small tree view showing all messages "related" to the message
would be nice.

Good point - file a bug.

I belive the Evo guys said they wouldn't do this, at least for 1.0, as
LDAP lookups can take a long time, especially if the LDAP store
contained 10000 people.
