Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Add-Ons: General, defect)

Description

Attachment: Before and After

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.44 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I have installed several addons that add drop-down options to the Message Send button or as a stand-alone butto in the main toolbar. In particular SMTPSwitch and SMTPSelect. They are supposed to add a drop-down list of the configured SMTP servers, allowing to select which server to use (becomes default until further selection). 


Actual results:

Until beta 21 everything ok. From beta 22, the list doesn't show, meaning that no option drops (it's not an empty list, nothing happens at all.
There is just a small square showing immediateli under/left the Send button.


Expected results:

A usual drop-down list should appear.

Have you contacted the extension author? Also is there anything in tools->error console after the dropdown fails?

As a workaround, I installed SMTPSelect 1.2.1 on TB 23 and it works.

I didn't, since I found the same behavior by using different add-ons working with drop-down menus.

But you still can contact any of them so they can tell us what they think changed in Thunderbird.
