Hi,

A few weeks back I wrote that sometimes after sending an email, Mail acts a bit cockeyed and leaves me in a random location - most often on the RSS item in Mailboxes. I have Mail set to check spelling before sending an email and, quite often when I'm responding to an email from someone else or if I don't care much about spelling in a given post (I try to spell as accurately as possible to avoid speech synth ugliness), I will move my VO cursor to the "Spelling and Grammar" title bar and hit the close box.

If I use the mouse click (numpad 5 using numpad commander) to send a mouse click through, I will, more often than not land in the Mailboxes table. If, on the other hand, I use VO+SPACE, I return to the message list as I would expect.

Just an odd observation. Also, after rebuilding virtually all of my mailboxes, running the permissions repair and doing everything else I could think of, I still get things like, "Inbox, Zero items, 50 unread." I cannot figure out how to fix this.

Happy Day,
