This is driving me nuts. I go through my mail in reverse chronological order. This means I look at the newest mails first and then go back from there. So this scenario happens dozens of times a day:
- Check out message, decide to mark it as unread to review/act on later
- Proceed to next, older, message
- When I decide to delete/archive the current message, Mail will highlight the message from 1. and mark it as read (because it is selected)
- This forces me to REmark this last message as unread before proceeding
Any ideas on how to solve this?

Press ⌥+backspace to delete the message. No other message will be highlighted.
Warning: This deletes the selected message(s) permanently.
