I've noticed that, too. The workaround I found is to use Ctrl+N.
BTW, posting a suggestion isn't the best way to get feedback to Microsoft on Outlook 2007. If you have a question about how to make something work, post a regular question, not a suggestion. If you have a suggestion or other feedback, use the Send a Smile/Frown tool from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A2E1F4E2-BC0F-4403-B09F

Thanks! I wasn't aware of the software. That will help out.
