Bug 1898648 Comment 0 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

## summary
Clicking on the gray not-in-my-AB icon in the email header sometimes doesn't work correctly: Each click adds a duplicate address book contact and the icon does not turn blue.

## steps to reproduce
1. go to Inbox
2. select an email from an unknown recipient (not stored in any address book)
3. sender address has a gray avatar
4. click on avatar

## expected results
* avatar icon should turn blue
* contact should be added to address book
* right-click context-menu for sender should include `edit contact` menu item
* right-click context-menu for sender should not include `add to address book` menu item

## actual results
* no [ux-userfeedback](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describekeywords.cgi#ux-userfeedback):
   * Avatar icon stays gray.
   * Right-click context-menu for sender does not include `edit contact` menu item.
   * Right-click context-menu for sender does include `add to address book` menu item.
* Contact is added, but due to the preceding 3 items user assumes the contrary. ([ux-trust](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describekeywords.cgi#ux-trust))
* Therefore user repeatedly clicks on avatar ([ux-trust](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describekeywords.cgi#ux-trust)), but it still stays gray.
* As a consequence, multiple duplicate contacts are created ([ux-mode-error](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describekeywords.cgi#ux-mode-error )), *see screenshot* in comment #1
   * BTW, this should be prevented by bug 45946.

## reproducible: sometimes
Unfortunately the bug does not always occur (so "cannot reproduce" doesn't equal WORKSFORME here).
I am observing the bug regularly, but have not found any clue as to what conditions must be fulfilled for manifestation. It seems to appear randomly (not saying it is), so it's probably hard to reproduce and track down.
