The PSM password dialog that displays when mail is first started (master
password?) is non-modal. If this dialog loses focus and is hidden behind another
mozilla window, all mozilla windows have to be minimized, or alt-tab through
tasks to get it to regain focus so the password can be entered. If Get Msg is
done before the password is entered, mozilla completely freezes and has to be
killed in Task Manager.

*Please* make this a modal dialog. It's the dialog with message:
"Please enter the Personal Security Password for the PSM Private Keys security
device."
I'm not sure who this should go to. Assigning to mscott for further triage.
