An odd bug has crept into xmh -- when composing a message, it sometimes
spontaneously decides to rescan the folder.  This would be a very minor
probelm, except that it freezes out the composition editor, sometimes
for a longish interval (maybe it is scanning many times?).

You have doubtless already noted that the topmost pane of buttons no longer
have borders.

Another irritating feature: when dragging the scrollbar downward, it
doesn't stop at the bottom.  Instead, I often scroll way too far when
trying to reach the bottom (most current) message.  Also, the dragging
operation seems to have difficulty actually keeping up with the mouse.
