Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.9-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

when in threaded mode, mutt doesn't jump to the first available message when
executing previous-thread (default binding: ^P) when the parent of two
replies is not available, which is at least unexpected. In my case it goes
to the second subthread. I wanted to read all what I have of this thread and
expected ^P to jump to the first message, so I can read all the messages by
pressing <right>.

You can test this with the file prev_thread-test.mbox that is compressed in
the attached file mutt_test_prev_thread.tar.bz2. Maybe an automated test can
be done with the muttrc I wrote. After executing

$ mutt -f prev_thread-test.1.mbox -F muttrc

the created file "content" should be the same as "content.expected".
Actually it gives the same as in "content.not_expected".

Greeting,
 Mike Dornberger
