When a mail is opened (by double clicking on it) in a separate window, the
auto-mail-downloader does not work correctly. It does trigger since I can see
the text displaying "Checking mail..." etc in the bottom bar, but mail (if any
is found) is not displayed. If I pressthe "Get Msgs" button (still have a window
open) it shows new mails.
If I have no mail open in a separate window the auto-mail-checker works just fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup auto-mail checking each 2 minutes or so.
2. Open an email by double clicking on it.
3. Send an email to yourself from another account.
4. Wait for 2 minutes.
5. See the "checker" run in the bottom statusbar (no new mails).
6a. Close the open email.
7a. Wait 2 mins.
8a. See new mail.

or: 
6b. Press "Get Msgs"
7b. See new email.

Actual Results:  
It does not show my new emails.

Expected Results:  
It should have displayed new messages.
Is this still an issue in recent builds?
