Thank you.   I'm revising the factor34 module now, and will let you all 
know when I'm ready for you to look at it again.

It's when I click in the message body and use the arrows that 
ThunderBird annoys me.

I use the up arrow to move up one line, and sometimes, it jumps up 
approximately 15 lines instead.

Or I use the down arrow to move down one line, and sometimes it jumps 
down  approximately15 lines instead.


I'm getting around the problem by either using the mouse cursor on the 
scroll bar,

or using the mouse cursor to click on the line where I want the type 
cursor to be.
