Re: Next Folder Button

This looks like just another example of the GUI boys not
coordinating with the programmers. The View > Next menu in the main
window includes 'Next unread folder', but that menu item doesn't
appear anywhere else that I can find. So even though it shows in the
Customize toolbar dialogue in Message windows- and seemingly
migrates from Available to Current - there is no menu item for it to
relate to. They'll probably fix it in the update if enough people
point it out to them:
