I'm at work right now so I can't try it out until late
tonight, but I'm almost positive that's not it.  This morning
I specifically selected an e-mail, hit <DEL>, nothing happens.
So I click on several more.  Note that ^D worked every time.

I'm suspicious that it's a sawfish problem from this weekend's
CVS.  I think to reproduce it all you have to do is switch
to a different desktop and back, but I won't be able to test
this until at least tonight.

There do appear to be other focus problems between IMAP
and local mail folders (I think I reported that this 
weekend but haven't seen any responses yet).  Is this what
you've seen?  To me it looks like the message highlight
color is different between the two, but I suppose that could
be because the focus is different between the two.
