In 3-pane, when reading a message, I click on the name of the sender in the message envelope. I repeatedly crash. [Build ID 1999082008] Steps to reproduce: 1. Start apprunner 2. Open email (Tasks | Messenger) 3. Open a folder for an email account by selecting the folder in the folder pane 4. Display a message by selecting a message from the thread pane 5. In the message envelope, click on the name of the sender of the email message I crash repeatedly at this point. I'm using Win95 on a P166 with 32Mb RAM.

I think this is a URL dispatching problem. Scott, do you own that?
Yeah url dispatching with necko hasn't been hooked up yet. This bug is a dup. I just have to dig up the #. I'll post back when I find it.
One bug I found is http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8628. Is this the one?
Severity: normal → critical
Even if the feature is not supported yet, we shouldn't be crashing.

Your right Lisa. It shouldn't crash. I'll use this bug to track fixing the crash and will fix this ASAP. We'll use the other bug you dug up for the actual feature of hooking up urls in the message window to do things like bring up the browser, or a compose window.

I just checked in the code to prevent us from crashing. But nothing happens yet. Bug 8628 tracks that feature.

I'm seeing this crash consistently using 1999092008 on NT 4.0. I haven't yet been able to get the other platforms up and running to verify there.
Welcome back Laurel! mailto links still work fine for me on both my Windows NT machine. In fact they now actually bring up a compose window. I'm wondering if your prefs are just out of date or something? Can you bring up the compose window normally and send a message or do you crash there too?
Target Milestone: M10 → M11
Not a milestone stopper. M11.
I've started to see this again too. looks like a regression in the webshell. I have a one line fix I'm going to get permission to check in for.
