That's what I wondered.  

I'll try the trick of using a separate desktop for my mail.  So far, with 
multiple windows, it gets cluttered too fast.  The windows-inside-a-window 
thing was nice in Eudora -- let me have a real messy email window that could 
all be moved as a single unit.

I'll get used to it.

Thanks for everyone's time.
