Latest Mail.app fuckery

Here's a fresh hell that began about two months ago. My inbox has messages like:

  1. Subject A
  2. Re: Subject B
  3. Re: Subject B
  4. Re: Subject B
  5. Re: Subject B

And here's what happens:

  • I click on message 1. I see it.
  • I click on message 2. I see it.
  • I click on message 3. It is selected in the list, but the body displayed is message 2.
  • Click on message 4. Still looking at message 2.
  • Whack-a-mole between messages 2, 3, 4 and 5 in any order. No change.
  • Click on message 1 (different subject) then back to any of 2, 3, 4 or 5: get to see the proper message.

  • Click on message 1. See it.
  • Click message 5. See it.
  • Click on message 4. Looking at message 5.
  • Click on message 3. Looking at message 5.
  • Click on message 2. Now I see message 2.

"Organize by conversation" and "Show related messages" are both off.

This doesn't happen all the time, and not in every folder, maybe, but it screws up consistently enough that I have come to expect it, and it's getting really irritating.

This is the class of bug I would have expected from the Netscape Communicator team, FFS.
