I have always been annoyed that closing message windows from OS/2's window
list causes PMMail to close also. Thanks to Ulrich Moeller, I now have an idea of
why, as shown below. Can this be changed for PMMail, please?

PMMail is nicely threaded, but apparently there is a possible threading/message
queue issue with it's message windows.
