Not quite.
It literally goes to the very first message in my inbox for the account
that I started the search from - it doesn't stay on the old message that
I found in the search, it re-selects the very first (oldest) message in
the mailbox that (likely) has nothing to do with the search.
Example:
Select Inbox for Home account.
See most recent message at top.
Click on most recent message to display.
Now type "/ f wilbur"
All messages from wilbur are now displayed.
I scroll to one, select it, display it.
Now I hit escape.
I'm back at the Home inbox, but, MailMate is showing a message from
Belinda, which happens to be the very first message (oldest) in the
Inbox.
The situation you describe was the old situation that I was happy with,
but for the last week whenever I leave a search I'm taken to the oldest
message in the inbox, if I was in the inbox when I started the search.
