When adding address' from addressbook in the compose window, selecting multiple
address' and the pressing enter exits the window as if pressing OK.  This action
should instead add the highlighted messages.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open compose message window
2.Click on "Address"
3.Select multiple address' from the list of email address'.
4.Press 'enter'

Actual Results:  Window closes and no addresses are in the 'to' address bar.

Expected Results:  Either of the following.

1. Window closes and the selected address' are added to the 'to:' address bar.

or

2. Address are added to the bottom section to later be put into 'to' section of
adderss bar, leaving the ability to add more address'.
Confirming on 2002010203, Win95. Not related to multiple messages. Not a focus
problem: 
1. Select an address
2. Use Tab key to make "Ok" receiving focus. 
3. Press Enter key.

Actual results:
Select Address dialog is cancelled, nothing is imported in the recipient list.
Changing summary from "Pressing enter after selecting multiple address' should
add those address to recipient" to "Enter key always dismiss Select Address
dialog". OS->All. Imo, correct behaviour should be 
a. Do nothing when pressing Enter immediately after selecting one or more addresses
b. Import selected addresses to recipient list, if "Ok" has focus.

I'd like to see the 4.x behavior implemented for this dialog.

Hitting Enter activates the "To" button. If user selects "Cc" button, Enter now 
activates the "Cc" button. Bcc as well. If the collection area has focus, Enter 
will activate the "OK" button.
I think if we want to do this, we should make sure OK doesn't have focus.

It appears to be working for me. 

In a new message/compose window I select the Address button. In the Select
Addresses dialog I select an address, click on To so it adds it to the bottom
pane, hit the Enter key and the Select Addresses dialog closes. The address area
in the new message/compose window displays the addresses as expected.
Yup, it seems to work as expected now. Mac users?
