Whew!  I no longer feel like like a lone voice crying in the
wilderness :).

No.  They don't work for me.  And I don't see how they could work for
you either Brian.  I am using Evo  2.0.2.  

If I cause the blue highlight bar (with Evo running under Gnome) to
highlight a message in the message pane and press PgUp, Evo take me to
the first message.  It does not scroll up one page through the message I
am looking at. 

If under the same highlight bar set up described above, I press PgDn,
Evo takes me to the last message. It does not scroll down one page
through the message I am looking at.  

In other words the PgUp key is a "go the first message" not a "go to the
previous page in the message" type key.  The PgDn is a "go to the last
message" not a "go to the next page in the message" key. 

I'd be curious Brian whether your version of Evo does indeed operate the
same way under the scenario I have described.  That would be odd if it
didn't.
