Summary
When reading a message from a mailbox, there does not appear to be an obvious way to close the current message and return to the message list, or to move directly to the next/previous message.
This makes high-volume mailbox triage very slow, because each message has to be handled through navigation that is not immediately discoverable.
Current behavior
- Open a mailbox/inbox.
- Click an email/message.
- The message opens.
- There is no obvious visible control to:
- close the message and return to the list,
- go to the next message,
- go to the previous message.
If such controls exist, they are not discoverable enough in the current UI.
Expected behavior
The message detail view should provide clear, always-visible navigation controls, for example:
- a back/close button to return to the current mailbox list,
- next / previous message buttons,
- keyboard shortcuts such as:
Esc = close message / return to list,
j / k or arrow keys = next / previous message,
- optional disabled states at the beginning/end of the list.
Why this matters
This is a core workflow for email clients. Users managing many emails need fast triage without returning to the mouse-heavy mailbox list after every single message.
Without close/next/previous controls, reviewing a mailbox becomes inefficient and unintuitive.
Environment
- Kurrier version/image:
v1.1.13
- Runtime: production Docker deployment
