message window.

Reproducible: Always

1. Open the Mozilla 1.4b browser window.
2. Enter Ctrl-M
Actual Results:  
No mail message appears.

Expected Results:  
A new mail message window should have appeared.

I did search - for "cntl compose mail" and "cntl new mail" (or something like
that).  CNTL-M doesn't "launch mail", it opens a compose window for new email -
the description is not very accurate.
