See http://claws-mail.org/NEWS for details of all the changes between
your previous version and your current version.

Here you will see, among other items, this:

* A hidden pref has been added, 'next_on_delete'. This controls the
  message selection when a message is deleted. A setting of '0'
  which cause the previous, older message to be selected, a setting
  of '1' will cause the next, newer message to be selected.
