Looks like this may have been addressed previously. I did most of my melee/spell casting as a SK tank in classic. I NEVER got an auto attack immediately after casting a spell.
This URL seems to be a similar post on the subject.

Melee attack timers will no longer be reset when a SK, Paladin, or Ranger cast a spell. Previously these classes had to wait a full attack delay after casting before they would attack via melee again

My personal belief is that something is still very unusual about the fact that when my shaman casts a spell he is able to auto attack immediately after casting. This is not something I remember seeing ever in classic. Unfortunately all the links I can find discussing spell and auto attack weaving point towards EQ2. Either my memory is shot (likely) or my google-fu is not good enough (also likely)
