Would it be possible to have an option to stop Thunderbird 'opening' more than one email? Or at least stop it happening on a double click or 'enter'?
This is something I never want to to, and end up frequently doing unintentionally.
I often select multiple emails, e.g. to delete, move, or mark, and end up with them all opening in separate tabs or windows.
This is possibly partly due to an old mouse that generates unintended double clicks. It's also possibly partly due to Parkinson's.
The consequence of this can be really painful if I've selected dozens of emails. Thunderbird grinds to a halt, and getting rid of all the tabs can be a little time-consuming as I have to either individually delete them, or 'close other', and restore the tabs I want.

I don't see a way to do that. If you already haven't, you should make a suggestion for that at https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/idb-p/ideas.
