   I am only up to "A" but it still seems to end up on the menu there -
just note that it is at the BOTTOM of the menu!   mgh

When in MAILBOOK mode I MAIL or FORWARD an item that will be logged in that
notebook, the freshly MAILed/FORWARDed item does *not* appear in the menu,
even after invoking the UPDATE subcommand (the UPDATE helpfile does not
specify updating works only for the UNREAD notebook).  AUTO.UPDATE is set
to YES, but that's not relevant.

I have to quit that notebook and then re-enter it to see the new item(s).

Am I overlooking something?

If this is part of mailBOOK's design, then I assume there is a valid reason
for it, in which case I'm curious as to that reason.

Has it already been discussed on the list?  I've browsed the notebook, but
can't find anything.  Maybe due to very short search?

Regards.
