"scroll up current message" shortcut disappeared

Hi,

I used to scroll up in current message using Shift+Space, but it stopped working for a few days now. it's not mentionned in moving around TB, so I don't know if it was normal behaviour or a feature added by TB's arch maintainer.

I don't think that's normal behavior. It works for me as you describe - Space scrolls down (until be bottom of the message, when it goes to the next message,) Shift+Space scrolls up.

Probably.

it works in Firefox. it works in Thunderbird when I open a message in a new tab.

ah! it works when I move into message panel, but it doesn't work anymore when I stay in messages list (having a message selected of course), as it used to, although scroll down works.
