I'd like to close this bug, but it would be good for you to try the
fixed browse-url.el and see if you can still trigger the problem with
that particular bug report.

That's an implementation detail.  From Emacs point of view, it
launches Outlook, passing it the addressee and the subject of the bug.
That the running Outlook intercepts the command and opens a new window
in the same executable is out of Emacs control.

I don't see why you should worry about that: you can always close the
new Outlook window without clicking "Send".  IOW, if you get an
Outlook window with the bug address and the bug title, and can paste
the body with "Ctrl-v", then the bug is fixed, and you don't need to
send anything anywhere (but if you do want to send, you can edit the
addressee).
