212352 - Mozilla freezes up when attempting to edit Address Book Lists

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 192832

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Address Book & Contacts, defect)

Description

[Dr. Ray E. Osejo]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212

When attempting to address outgoing email messages to multiple addressee lists
that I have generated, I usually can click on the "Edit" button while the List
is highlighted in the Address Book window which opens after I click on the
Address button when editing a received message as new or composing a new
message.  Just recently, clicking on either the Address Book list and then
Properties in the Address Book window, or attempting to use the "Edit" button
while addressing out of the Address dialog window causes Mozilla to freeze,
requiring me to use Task Manager to End Task and close down Mozilla.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. While reading a message in Mozilla Mail Client, right click and choose "Edit
as  New"
2.  Click on the "Address" button in the Composer window
3.  Highlight a desired Address List previously created with multiple addresses
in it
4.  Click on the "Edit" button at the bottom of the Addressing window 

Actual Results:  
Mozilla freezes up and you have to manually End Task to get out of Mozilla

Expected Results:  
The selected Address list should have come up with a listing of the addresses in
the list, allowing removal or addition of individual email addresses

Does Mozilla only hang or does it take 100% of the CPU?

Only Mozilla hangs.....you can switch to other open applications such as an
Instant Messenger or Quicken.

similar to bug 192832.  Reporter, have you tried a more current build to see if
this behavior is fixed (for example, in 1.6+)?  If not, please do so and comment
your results in the bug.
