Recently Comcast changed their email program.  For several days, Using Mozilla, when the email page was opened, icons and featured were scrambled or missing.  That page is now working.  What has not been updated is the "Compose Mail" page.  When I access it through Explorer it is in HTML format with many features that were not available prior to the Comcast update.  Using Mozilla the "Compose Mail" page is in "text" and no features are available.

Hope it can be fixed....Thanks...Mary

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Comcast Email
2.Open "compose Mail"
3.

Actual Results:  
If opened in Explorer works fine
If opened in Mozilla "compose mail" is missing features

Expected Results:  
All features should be available in Mozilla

IE and Firefox use different extensions of HTML to make inline HTML editing possible.
