As you seem to find it difficult to move the cursor on your own,
perhaps this utility will help:

You could install it to fix your broken mail reader - if it's not too
much effort.

The effort involved is clearly too much for you to handle. Are you
really that lazy?

Your laziness will make life difficult for people who find your followups
in a future Google search. Just because you've read the entire thread,
doesn't mean that someone else will have done the same next year. Then
again, the chance of you posting useful information for someone to find
in Google does seem to be a bit remote.

That might be all your time is worth. Others get paid a little more
than that.
