I don't think the above is a solution, although one never knows what will
work.  Command-N is a legitimate PM keyboard equivalent for opening a new
Message window; it should not open a Mail message window if PM is the
frontmost application.  To do so would imply that the system is sensing
an open and running e-mail client application, but defaulting to Mail for
a keyboard command.  That's not the same as the system requiring an e-
mail client application and opening the default of Mail.

I would check to see if Mail is running when the problem occurs (look in
the Dock) and if perhaps PM has "dropped from the front" so that Mail is
actually foremost.  Who knows?
