Using 2002010703 Wins trunk build on NT. Addressing under Mail/News Account settings, the dropdown list to use a different LDAP server displays empty list randomly. Steps to reproduce: 1. Edit|Mail&News Account settings|Addressing 2. Click the second radio button, 'to use a different LDAP server' 3. Click the LDAP dropdown list to choose 4. Keep doing Step 3 and choose different one Actual result: dropdown list sometimes displays empty or '.....' or incomplete server names(net... for netscape) Expected result: dropdown list should always displays complete LDAP server list

This bug is problem with LDAP dropdown list and happens to all platforms. Bug 127296 is dropdown box of the LDAP dropdown box list gets cut off and only happens on MacOS X 10.1.2. Both are regressions from 6.2.1.
Keywords: regression
Testing here it seems that this behavior has even greater flakiness. Sometimes it works, sometimes it behaves as indicated, and sometimes (!!) there are for me-three- blank choices, "None", "Yale LDAP" (the directory I have set up), and a random directory whose origin I can't determine, which I subsquently have to delete! (I have seen "WhoWhere Directory" and "Four11 Directory"; I assume these are commercial directories from out there, somewhere.) I will try to investigate more. I am using a fresh profile, fresh install of 0.9.9 on Win98. Changing platform to All (per comment 2; this would have helped a recent search of mine quite a bit) me: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020311

grr. platform -> all for real this time
Hardware: PC → All
(sorry for the N comments everyone!) A further case of flakiness: only "None" is displayed. So we now have four cases, which seem to appear more or less randomly (again, "Yale LDAP" is our LDAP directory here) 1. Works as intended. 2. ... or Yale... or the like (truncated names, but they're all there) 3. Only "None" 4. "None", "Yale LDAP", and a random directory (which seems to spring forth, incidentally, from either here http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/modules/libpref/src/init/mailnews.js#205 or here http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/modules/libpref/src/init/mailnews.js#243 Hope this helps.

Setting the width for the dropdown list box seems to fix the problem.

20020617 branch builds on Win2k, Linux and MacOS X This problem is getting worse. Never works as expected. 'netscape' directory is displayed as ' ', '...' or 'n...'. Nominating again !!
I agree with Yulian. Really nominating this time!
