RE: win32 seamonkey build (1999-04-21-08)
Steps:
1. From 3 pane window, click on New Msg to bring up the compose window
2. Type To and Subject field, no problem
3. But when I set focus in the compose body, a square comes up when I hit the
space bar.
Occurs On Win_nt and win98 only
Do not occur on Linux

RE: win32 build (1999-04-26-08)
In today's build, when I sent a mail with squares in the content, any text after
the square would not show up in the received message.

Reassign to kostello. Dup of http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5533 ?

Comment 4

[lchiang]

For mail, this is a stopper because of the fact that any text after hitting the
space bar does not show up on the receiving side!

Heard that kostello is sick (per Phil).  Buster, since bug 5533 is assigned to
you, do you believe that this is a dup of 5533?

I am not seeing the square on WinNT.  Please retest with the next build after
5:30pm 4/28/98.
Is it a separate bug that no content after a legit space character is being
passed through?  Please advise.

Actually, in the latest release build 1999042708 sent out by cyeh, we can't
double check this bug due to bug 5533 (crash when pressing space bar).

I don't know if it is a separate bug about content after the square characters
not being sent.  I guess if the square character bug was fixed, then the content
would be sent, right?

Scott, any ideas?

bug 5533 is fixed.  Please re-test this bug.  Thanks.

another ping asking the submitter to retest.  Bug 5533 has been fixed for a
while, so you should be unblocked trying to reproduce this.
