Why would you want to do this?  In the open message window, you can go

Simple, I have 24 mew message. 3 are important.  I click on the 3 I want
immediately.

But you can only read 1 at a time anyway.

I'm sure most other people find it far more useful to be able to open up
multiple message windows (by double-clicking or whatever method) rather
than being forced to use one.


I'd have to disagree.  This is the first mailer that I have ever tried
that behaves this way.  Some mailers have an option, but all default to
the reuse method.

You can test this with Netscape or Outlook for example.

So if you have your screen and windows big enough to read a message, and
click on the message list at the same time, why don you just make your 
window bigger?  It contains the same full message as the popup window.



Hope this helps

I turn off preview windows, but it seems evo wants a new window each
time I double click. How do I tell it to resuse the window?
