Unselect Message is an add-on for Thunderbird that stops the program from automatically selecting the next message once you've deleted the current one.
What's even better is that in addition to preventing automatic selection, Unselect Message also allows you to manually unselect the currently selected message and clear the preview pane by clicking into the empty space below the last message in the thread list. This is incredibly convenient and allows you to quickly navigate through your emails and stay organized.
However, it's worth noting that Unselect Message works best with the "Remember the last selected message" option unchecked. If you have it checked, Thunderbird will remember the last message you selected, even after using Unselect Message. So be sure to adjust your settings accordingly for the best experience.
Overall, I highly recommend Unselect Message for anyone who wants to take full control over their Thunderbird inbox. It's easy to install and works with Thunderbird versions 1.0 - 1.5.0.*. Plus, the recent update to fix compatibility issues with other extensions and the addition of a "Report a Bug" wizard show that the developer is committed to providing a high-quality, user-friendly product.
