108447 - Message text drawn over menus & command bars

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 106355

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Jason Goodman]

Mozilla build: 2001102308
Reproducibility: always

How to reproduce:
From the MailNews message list panel, click on a message for which Mozilla
displays five lines of headers (For example, Subject:, From:, Date:, To:, and CC:).

Results:
Message appears in the Message View panel, but is also drawn in the upper-left
corner of the screen, covering the menu bar and command panel.  (I'll attach a
screenshot showing this.)  This ghost disappears when the menubar or command bar
is redrawn (you can "wipe" another window over the face of the MailNews window
to clean it.)

Comments:
This does *not* occur for the more typical case where Mozilla displays four
header lines (From, To, Date, Subject).  A similar bug occasionally occurs in
the Browser, but I can't reproduce it, and I can't figure out what category to
put the joint MailNews/Browser bug in.  This behavior is relatively new: it did
not occur for builds dated roughly September or early October.

Aha!  This seems to occur only when using the "Modern" theme.

Also, "Reproducibility" should be "About 80%" rather than "Always".  I can't
find any pattern to when it does/doesn't happen.

This was a problem in the Oct 23 and Oct 24 builds but has been fixed since. 
Please try a more recent build.
