You are correct - as usual. :) I agreee that the RoundCube should aim to behave like desktop applications. I am guessing there has to be a way to "disable" the new window/tab triggering when you click on this. It's a tad annoying. But I guess we'll figure it out some time.
I am guessing preventDefault (if that is what it's called - I don't recall right now) does not work in IE?
