Hello nutty colleagues,

I've just joined the squirrelmail dev mailing list because of an itch that
needs to be scratched.

Being an advocate of this webmail implementation, one matter that comes to
my attention that if I'm reading a message my options are:

Message List | Unread | Delete	Previous | Next 	Forward | Forward as
Attachment | Reply | Reply All


When a message is selected, the squirrel uses read_body.php and displays it.

The "Next" option on the menu uses findNextMessage function in
read_body.php and, if that is selected chooses the next message and
displays.

When a user (like me!) selects "Delete" the good Squirrel promptly moves
the message to Trash and returns the user to the mail the Inbox, using
delete_message.php.

More commonly however, a user wants to "Delete" the message *and* move on
to the next message, rather than the Inbox. One click rather than two.

So surely, it would be relatively easy for a real developer (unlike a hack
with ideas, like myself) to add a "Delete and Next" menu item that deletes
the current message from the mail server and selects and displays the next
message?

Is this a good idea?

All the best,
