buttons for 'inbox' and 'sent' msgs

I spotted a glitch the other day and posted, concerning the inbox, then saw 'sent' message handling was worse (up / down to next / previous messages always went back to list of messages), and bumped that (though no sign of acknowledgement it was seen)...

Now the 'up' arrow is showing a "." (I was going to link to an image but it should be easy to spot) for both inbox and sent messages (once a message is being viewed, IYSWIM).

One day (2011) it may work. Just don't change the code while "under the influence" please, Tech bods, else your "clear thinking" and even any comments in the code will perhaps be "unclear" in the sober chill of a January morning.

Oh dear.

INBOX messages have UP and DOWN buttons.

SENT messages have LEFT and RIGHT buttons.

BUMP !

Just tried to jump to a different SENT message and (don't remember if UP or DOWN) it went back to the list of messages.

PLEASE fix this.

Wonder if you can check whether AdamTech is about too... (Geraldine, as you have been lurking today) the lack of "^" isn't a big deal, but if you click 'next' or 'previous' message (on SENT Mail only) it always gives the list. Have tried it with Firefox and Chrome, will be happy to check it also fails with MSIE and Opera and will even fire up my old Mac to check with Safari if need be...

... and a Happy New Year to anyone who reads this post/thread !!

It doesn't happen in Chrome, but here's a couple of screenshots (in 1 .jpg) from Firefox, which I 'captured' in the last 10 minutes...

However, far more important than the odd 'previous' button, is that on the 'sent' items, either 'next' or 'previous' buttons take one to the message list.

I'm not able to see the "." you're talking about in Firefox or Chrome. Could you give a screenshot?

Just adding a comment so maybe someone at MNHQ will spot this (unrelated to page blocking from StopBadware.org)

:)

Oh yes, and Merry Christmas to all the staff.

Sun is out, for the moment, up here in N Wales, even if we did have a bit of snow (could no longer see the tracks from last few days, and even the cars that did move this morning had their tracks covered over.... up to 10" possible by 3pm so am off out to buy essentials like cat food).
