Ok, I agree; though I think the main window should not appear if
Thunderbird is already running (which I should have mentioned in my
original report, sorry!) and this is in fact the behaviour when
Thunderbird is called with -compose.
Since -mail didn't work properly at all before 1.5 it's clear that
gnome-control-center should be using -compose. Anyway I'll file a
separate bug and see what they have to say.
