I have seen that in the bug. >I think the screen shots may be important as they show: 1) that the >layout is 'Wide View' (no idea if this makes a difference, No difference here. >but worth noting), Yes. 2) Both the email and newsgroup have multiple folders so when >the inbox/newsgroup is selected (screenshot 631242) the 'Name' box is >completely full (Qgiz to m.s.s.seamonkey ). Took some time for me to understand what you meant with 'Name' box. It is not visible here because i do not like tabs in MailNews. *g* >As soon as I select 'm.s.s.seamonkey' the cursor jumps automatically to >the message display/compose box (all white at this time). When i select m.s.seamonkey with the trackball the cursor and the focus remain on m.s.seamonkey in the folderpane. Never have seen another behavior. When i press 'n' the focus jumps to a message in the threadpane which is displayed in the messagepane. The cursor is still on the NG. What do you mean with 'message display/compose box'? The messagepane? The threadpane? After selecting m.s.seamonkey the threadpane is here blank only if there are no unread messages. That is because i have checked View->Messages->All and View->Threads->Threads with Unread. Of course i normally select a NG only when it contains new messages. ;) >The user then must move the cursor up to the 'Subject' box in order >to select a subject header. Difficult to understand. Normally the user would select a message by clicking on it in the threadpane. This may be done e.g. below 'Subject' or below 'From'. What is a 'Subject' box? >It is at the seperator line between message window and 'Subject' >window The separator between the threadpane and the line with the column headers?

First moving the cursor to the threadpane, then leaving it? Why should a user do this? It is not necessary to select a message. Nevertheless, i have moved the cursor all over the screen without getting a D&D cursor. >So IMO, the screenshots help to setup the same scenario. Hm.

Hm. > >No. See above. I set up both an email account with multiple folders, and >a newsgroup account with multiple subscribed newsgroups. Well, then you should create another new profile and there only a single mail account. No configuration otherwise. If you get no D&D cursor you may populate the Inbox with some PMs. >> The difference must be something on the OS.

They install a network manager which assumes, that a DHCP-server exists. No possibility to insert the data for my ISP. Installing rp-pppoe sometimes required an existing connection to the ISP *g* and often conflicted with the network manager. Removing the network manager was impossible without removing a lot of essential packages. Bah. You have checked different distributions and i assume that each of those installed a desktop manager. So you have in the background a lot of running daemons which do not exist here.
