Mary,
You don't mention what sort of laptop this is. Could you please provide
the output of the following commands, as described on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HotkeyResearch?
sudo dmidecode -s system-manufacturer
sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
sudo dmidecode -s
xkeyboard-config isn't involved in handling hotkeys, so this is not an
xkeyboard-config issue. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys for further
discussion and troubleshooting assistance.
** Changed in: hotkey-setup (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: xkeyboard-config = hotkey-setup

XF86Mail is
the issue seems to be rather a keycode one than a GNOME change

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
On my laptop, at some level well below anything I can control through
GNOME Control Center
I think maybe there's several distinct bugs here.
On my Dell Inspiron 630m (From Australia, has US keyboard afaik), Fn+Esc
is also reported as XF86Mail rather than as the suspend key. showkey at
a text vt says that Fn+Esc is keycode 142. That's one bug.
I also have Mutt as my Mail Reader in
I have (had?) a similar problem with my Asus eee pc 900, where it
launched evolotion as soon as I inserted the power cord, however I
disabled the mail hotkey and haven't been bothered by it anymore.
