not sure of component, pls punt as needed. found using 2002.01.09.08 comm linux bits [rh7.2], using an IMAP acct [w/non-migrated profile]. 1. in the folder pane, select a newsgroup to view. 2. click on the Compose button to open a mailnews compose window. 3. in the Newsgroups field of the address region, make sure you have group name entered, eg, netscape.public.mozilla.test. 4. enter some text in the Subject and compose body. 5. try to save the msg by these means: * click the Save button * select File > Save As > File * select File > Save As > Draft * select File > Save As > Template results: attempts to save fail. no progress dlg appears for any of the save attempts [nor does the file picker appear for the File case].
this used to work...will also check on mac os x.

side note: after sending the new msg, it was saved in my local Sent folder. still investigating mac os x...
This wfm with the respin build 2002-01-10-03 on Win2k, checking Linux now.
my bad, i forgot to all the other local folders. save as draft and template worked. however, i still think there's an issue wrt save as file not working. and the lack of the progress dlg. unless i'm misunderstanding something and/or that's a known issue. fwiw, i also see this on mac os x. sorry about the noise.
