How about arranging that when the "delete" button is pressed in the
standalone message window, the message window stays present but is blank
- either by loading about:blank, or by loading a minimal XUL document
(think Account Central) which says "The message you were viewing has
been deleted. Click here to view the next message".
I agree that this is a major issue and should be fixed.
