I start at the top and flick right, to the bottom;  or start at the bottom 
and flick left back to the top and the mailboxes button to backup a level. 
No Compose button.

But yes, once you get rid of the sidebar as it calls it, and you get mail 
from anywhere and everywhere;  then sure, the buttons to do things are 
there.  In an empty folder, doing this takes me back to the last folder I 
had messages in; this is not where I want to start messages from 
necessairly.  If this is the only way it works, the only way it seems to 
work here;  then one, or I, shall just have to make a note to choose correct 
From: addi every time.

Thanks, RobH.

Nope.

I deleted my inbox and tried it out.  Did you try using the item chooser to 
confirm that the compose button is indeed on the screen?  .
