Build 2000101908, Windows 95, POP Mail

Click on New Mail button.  Mail Compose window appears.  Select "New Mail" from
the File menu while the Mail Compose window is in the forefront.  Nothing happens.

However, note that I can create a 2nd Mail Compose window when I put the 3 pane
mail interface windows in the forefront.
Using oct19 commercial mn6 branch build, Win98:
You actually can get a 2nd compose window, but the menu item is messed up:
1.  Doesn't work: File|New Message from a compose window
2.  Does work:  Ctrl+M shortcut from compose window
3.  Does work:  File|New|Message from compose window

So the real problem is that the first New Message menu item doesn't launch a new
window, it just replaces the focus in the current one (on my machine the window
does a little shimmy when it re-focuses).  There is also the problem that the
menu item is listed in two places, in the main File menu level and also in the
sublevel.

Changing summary to reflect the true issue...
