shift delete outlook 2007

Noticed a funny behavior - is this a known issue; does anybody else have this
issue?

Any inbox (imap, exchange) you can shift+delete a message to permanently
delete a message (skip the deleted items folder).

I typically hold down shift key and use the delete key or sometimes the
delete X in the toolbar.

The next message will then show in the preview window after deleting a
message, which it should. And as long as you are holding shift down, you can
use a delete function again, it will perma-delete that message. However, in
Outlook 2007, the next message does not show up in the preview window. It
did in Outlook 2003.

The next message (which would be the 3rd after deleting the first 2) will
not show until you release the shift key.

Any ideas on a fix?

Thanks!
 
Ok - Correction to my post...

It's only if you hold shift while clicking the delete X in the toolbar.

Keyboard combination appears to work.

But when using this combo (shift on keyboard plus mouse click delete on
toolbar) with Outlook 2003, the next messages would appear in the preview
window.
