Yeah, this is annoying, but the flip side is that if you opened the
window in response to incoming mail, it sure is nice that it
automatically displays the first new message.  I suspect that since I
set the hold variable, I find the overall behavior less annoying
than you.

I get bitten by this occasionally, too.  I find it annoying to discover
that I never sent out the message that I composed several hours ago.
An easier way to get the compose frame back is to hit the Compose button.
Mush will whine that you have to finish your first letter and will pop
up the compose frame.
