I noted the followups, but no one asked whether the window parameters
(class, name) were the same for the two invocations of XFMail. Are they?
If not, then you might get the two behaviors. And you might have some
race-like condition from issuing some Style commands, invoking XFMail, and
then reissuing some Style commands, so that the first XFMail is invoked
with different Style flags than later ones. The question of whether the
invocation is different for the two instances is also interesting.
