1081735 - link properties does not work

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1044336

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[HJ]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0
Build ID: 20140923175406

Steps to reproduce:

I installed the last version 3.1.2 yesterday.
Since then, I noticed the following error.
I tried to create a link using the link properties.





Actual results:

First, I cannot paste a link, have to type it
Second, when I send the message to myself, the link appears underlined in blue in the received message, but has not effect when I click on it.
I have to paste and go in the firefox URL area to access to the linked URL


Expected results:

Previously, I was able to copy a link in the "link location" field
Second, the recipient was able to directly access the URL by clicking on the blue underlined link.
I guess this is a side effect of the bug corrected in this new release : 
Fixed an issue where anchor links would not work in HTML emails (Bug 974857)
