113186 - mail without any recipients sent behind mailnews window when send is clicked

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 103873

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect, P2)

Description

[Shayon Mukerjee]

Steps to reproduce:

1)  Open mailnews
2)  Compose a new email
3)  Enter a subject and body text.  Leave the "to" field blank
4)  Hit "send"
5)  A message will popup to tell you that you need to specify recipients
6)  When you hit "ok", the mailnews window will have been moved to the front and
the e-mail will be behind it.

Note:  This does not occur when mailnews is open but a browser window is
currently behind your e-mail.  In this case, the e-mail stays on top, like it
should.

confirming this on 2001120306 win98 build. I do not have any cache prefs turned
on.  
This seems to be a regression.  We should leave the compose window in focus.

Is this really a nsbeta1+, P2? If yes, then we need to try and targeted to a
milestone M1.0 or earlier to make the beta.

This bug is caused by an OS problem and there is no quick fix solution for this.
I am duping this on another bug 103873 which is also about the compose window
being moved to the background after clicking ok on an error dialog. The other
bug will be re-assigned to dan matejka.
