what is actually happening seems to be related to the focus of cursor.

1. when you click on a folder, the last message you touched in that folder
is greyed but does not have the focus.
2. if you now play with the horizontal scroll bars without touching any
messages (say to scroll left or right to check the date or so)
3. now go to another folder and come back, you will find that the scroll
position of the message window has changed.

now repeat, but this time in step 2 scroll the message window _and_ select
a message so that it is not greyed but in your foreground colour.

this time you when go to another folder and back (using the mouse) you
will find the scroll position of the message window has been retained.

strange, but perhaps it is a feature.
