Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Jim]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko/20040705
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko/20040705

Compose/Reply does not select the correct Identity for the currently selected
account.  It always defaults to the first account identity.  For example I have
2 mail accounts.  While in mail account 2 I select reply or compose.  The
compose comes up but the from address Identity is not the identity of account 2.
 It is the identity of account 1.  In earlier versions (April/May 2004) this
worked as expected.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Setup 2 or more mail accounts.
  Make sure the itentity (Name, from address, etc) are different.
2.Select compose or reply while in the second mail account.
3.Notice the from address at the top.  It will default to the first account and
not the account you are replying from.

Actual Results:  
The from address is not the from address defined in the current account.

Expected Results:  
The from address (identity) should have defaulted to the identity of the current
account.

This bug has been resolved in the latest nightly Gecko/2004071208.

I was mistaken about this being a dup of bug 228593.  There are similarities but
they are not the same.  I will reopen the bug and then close it because, it
appears to be fixed in the latest nightly.
