hey there, thanks for the reply. I am a windows apps developer and am pretty aware of focus issues as I troubleshoot my apps with them as needed. A click on the taskbar icon is a priority 1 call to an app to bring it to the foreground, and if it is able, it will. I have 10+ apps running at any given time, many development environments/database clients and no other app ever has responded as this one does. When it happens, it turns color, but does not restore focus. I immediately hit alt+tab and flip to it, and emclient has done its work, ie open the new email from notification or whatever. It just skips the “bring to focus” step. I have had this issue on 2 different machines since early 6.x and I see others reported it here here here
