That's due to some behavior change in glib2. There is a workaround of
moving to another view (Contacts, Calendar...) and then back (you can
do Ctrl+2, followed by Ctrl+1). That should populate the New button
(and the File->New menu) again.

The shortcuts still work, Ctrl+Shift+M should open the new mail message
composer window.
