1059520 - thunderbird -compose in Mac OS X Mavericks cause "A copy of Thunderbird is already open"

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 469990

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[PJM]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/37.0.2062.94 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

1. Thunderbird opened.
2. Go to terminal (inside Applications and in the root folder where thunderbird or thunderbird-bin are).
3. ./thunderbird -compose "to=[e-mail]" 
    OR
   ./thunderbird-bin -compose "to=[e-mail]"


Actual results:

Appears an dialog box saying "A copy of Thunderbird is already open. Only one copy of Thunderbird can be open at a time."


Expected results:

It should open a new email box and in field "to" should appear "[e-mail]".

Note: This feature works in Ubuntu 14.04 with "thunderbird -compose "to=[e-mail]"
