Well, let's put it this way:

If I read a message, and then go on to the next message by hitting the X in 
the top right corner, nothing is saved on screen.  If I save a message, and 
then go on to another message by hitting the X, I still go to the next 
message, but the one that I saved to a directory is still on screen behind 
the new message.  This is dumb, and should be fixed.  Sure I can de-picture 
it, but why should I have to?  I have, after all, saved it.  Why is it still 
on screen behind the KMail window?
