Greetings Bat Fans,

Here's an odd bit of behaviour that goes back a long way and is not specific to 
recent changes.

I keep TB minimised to the tooltray. I use a 3rd party tool called StrokesPlus 
to summon and dismiss TB with a mouse stroke that emits the system hotkey 
defined in the TB system hotkeys (in this case, Ctl+Alt+Shift+B) to perform 
this function.  I read any new incoming mail using the MailTicker. Most of the 
time, this is all just fine.

Here's the problem: If I have been using the main interface - maybe I'm writing 
a reply to something in a folder somewhere or looking up some information. I 
use the MinToTray hotkey (keyboard or StrokesPlus - it doesn't make a 
difference) to get the main interface off screen. I double click the ticker to 
read new mail. The main screen reappears before the ticker folder opens. It 
shouldn't. If I MinToTray at this point, the main window (hidden behind the 
MailTicker window) come to the fore, as if I had just summoned it. Once I 
MinToTray this instance, it will stay hidden the next time I open the 
MailTicker.

It may be due to new mail arriving while the front end is open.

Also - I found a nasty display issue while composing this message. Every time I 
minimised the edit window and opened the MailTicker, when I came back to this 
message, some lines were missing or replaced by a repetition of the line 
directly above. This was a display bug, evidenced by highlighting the broken 
text of the message, cutting and pasting. The pasted text was the text as it 
should have been.

I realise the MinToTray issue is a pretty esoteric one, but I wanted to 
document it - it's driving me nuts!
