Hm, I think the reason it sends you back to "My friends" is because (before we added the "Compose" button) you initiated a message send by clicking on "Send message" on a user profile page. But, since it may contain multiple recipients, it didn't make sense to send you back to just one of their profile pages, so it sends you to the Friends list instead.

But you know... I think maybe the most logical place to send you, would be to the "Sent messages" page. So that you can get a visual confirmation that your message was sent.
