Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Matthew Kaufman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/10.0.648.205 Safari/534.16
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.17) Gecko/20110414 Thunderbird/3.1.10

Starting with the most recent upgrade (3.1.10) clicking "reply" results in a new message with the previous message quoted but there is no longer an attribution (who sent what is being quoted) at the top of the quote.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View a message
2. Click "reply" or "reply all"
3. View the new message being composed, observe that the top line is the beginning of the quote and no attribution line appears with the sender or date sent

Actual Results:  
No attribution line

Expected Results:  
Attribution line appears before the quote

This was working until the most recent upgrade installation

What's the value of mailnews.reply_header_authorwrote ?

Does it work better in -safe-mode (see http://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Safe-Mode) ?
