I'm not actually sure if this counts as a bug, but here's the problem:
When I do something in xmh (like, for instance, try to inc my mail) and
it fails for some reason, or needs to send me a message (like "no mail
to incorporate"), it pops up this enormous, ugly box way over on one
side of my screen, with huge borders, with one or two lines of text
floating in it, and one gigantic "acknowledge" button. Is this
supposed to be normal? Is this the default behavior? (No, I haven't
read the manual pages *recently*, so maybe I was supposed to set
something, but if this is the default then things are weird.)
