Go to next message when deleting messages

Mobile in portrait mode.

When deleting an open message it would be useful to be able to go to the next message in the list rather than back to the message list itself. It could be an option perhaps.

This would have to be an option as user preferences vary in this regard.

I've changed the title of this as it is relevant to the desktop interface too.

With the preview window open it would be useful if the next message is selected and highlighted so that it can be deleted too. This is useful when reviewing messages and deleting many in on review session.

In addition, the interface could be intelligent about this and notice the direction in which you are highlighting and deleting messages so that the correct one above or below the currently deleted one is highlighted next.

Perhaps the best option would be to add another delete button that also displays the next message.

I quite like the suggestion that "if preview pane is set to keep open, delete opens the next message", and otherwise it doesn't.

Deleting a message should definitely (in my opinion) go on to highlight the "next" (in sort order) message - so if the pane is kept open, it should also open it

Agreed.
