The two shortcuts that use Tab seem to be OK, at a glance, although I'm not
accustomed to them. 

The shortcuts with which I'm familiar sometimes no longer work. As far as I can
tell, at the time of writing: 

* they're effective only if preceded by a click on a tab

* if an e-mail is selected, then it's as if the Control tab is ignored 
  (there's paging down and up within the list, without altering the selection). 

This smells like an upstream bug, although I have not yet found one (I imagine
many people reporting it, if not FreeBSD-specific). 

I'm not certain when symptoms began, but it's recent, I assume that they began
with the major upgrade (91.13.0_1 -> 102.2.2):
