I would miss that, too! (I'm still using 1.5.5.1.) I use that
feature all the time when I'm working in other windows and want to
keep an eye on any new messages that arrive.
Can we fix this new behavior, or at least make it optional?

I suppose I could get used to that, although it still doesn't seem
as nice as being able to scroll almost all the messages off-screen.
Then new messages are really apparent.
