125387 - Right-click on 'Get Msgs' should open context menu

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 90783

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8+) Gecko/20020212

In browser, right-clicking on an icon which has a menu (eg. forward/backward) in
the toolbar, forces that menu to pop-up. The menu otherwise only pops-up when a
user clicks on the drop-down region (in modern, a little down-arrow button).

Buttons on the toolbar in mailnews (currently only 'Get Msgs') should behave in
a similar way; that is, right-clicking on 'Get Msgs' (independent of location)
should force the context menu to open.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on 'Get Msgs' in mailnews



Actual Results:  Nothing

Expected Results:  The context menu is displayed, which otherwise appears when
left-clicking on the 'drop-down' arrow.

As with back/forward in the browser, hitting a small (depending on theme!)
button is less effective than right-clicking on a larger button. This could be
considered more important than in the browser to some extent, since the menu
allows access to individual components ('user1 on server1') which can be
otherwise achieved in the browser by clicking multiple times on the buttons
normally.
