Re: [Evolution] Any suggested workarounds for yet one more interface quirk?

Hey Carlos, I see you have a shaw.ca address - where are you? I'm in
Victoria (also using shaw) - but I'm moving to Halifax on Friday for
about a year.

2.0.4, just upgraded a few days ago from 2.0.2. I don't think the
behaviour has changed.

Ah - it sounds like you are using the preview pane - am I right? I'm not
- I open messages in a separate window. PgUp and PgDn work there.

If you are using the preview pane, PgUp and PgDn should also work if you
click in the preview pane or tab to it, otherwise they operate in the
message list pane - as they should.

BTW, in the message list pane, they go up/down by 1 page, not to the
first/last message. Is this not the case for you - or do you just have
few enough messages that they are all visible at once?
