uh... the folder was deleted out from under it. this isn't data loss.
the message-window would also blank if the suer deleted the message in
other ways (in fact, people had filed bugs that it didn't blank
originally).
Comment 2 Jeffrey Stedfast 2004-02-11 16:11:39 UTC 
as someone on the list mentioned, this should just close the message
window.
