I'll try this.

I've never managed to *make* it happen. It's also the case that I don't 
*think* that I'm opening a new window when I switch to a different 
message and then back again. I'm just clicking on another message in the 
message list, then back to the problem child. Both before and after I do 
the switch/switch back, I'm viewing the message in the message pane. I 
almost never open a message in its own window unless I'm trying to look 
at two simultaneously.
