--- Comment #3 from Jan-Matthias Braun <jan_braun at gmx.net> ---
Hi! I am not sure, if this really is the same problem, but as I see it, I do
see a general problem with the focus strategy. :-)

1. Whenever I select an e-Mail, the mail view is focused. This means, that
actions like delete don't work anymore. Only when I select an e-Mail a second
time, things are back to normal and the focus stays in the message list.

2. Whenever I enter text into the search field, right after updating the
message list, the focus seems to go to the mail view, too. Of course, any
keystrokes won't go to the search field anymore. This is similar to the
original problem here and can be reproduced reliably without any folder change.

The description of where the focus goes has been derived from ticking shift-tab
until I was back at the search field. Assuming "Search Field" - "Message List"
- "Message View" tab order. I.e., I went back and forth to see where the focus
has ended up.

My kde installation is up to date. I.e., kmail 16.12.0, plasma 5.8.5, and
frameworks 5.29. The patch noted in Comment 1 is already applied, as far as I
can see.

I am not sure, when this started. Probably with the qtwebengine version? Does
the mail view now focus itself?

I really like kmail, so thanks for looking into this!
