Control+tab will rotate you through your different tabs. Your list of 
messages will be in one tab and the message you opened up with the enter 
key will be in another. As you open up more and more tabs, the 
control+tab key won't toggle you between those two tabs but rather cycle 
you through your open tabs. For example, I use the calendar extension 
Lightning, so this is one of my tabs.

If you want to close the tab/windows the message is in and go back to 
your list of messages, try the key combination control+w.
