134968 - Mailing list dialog disappears when autocomplete drop down appears

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 135528

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Address Book & Contacts, defect)

Description

[Ninoschka Baca]

Trunk build 2002-04-01: WinMe and Win98

Overview: Create a list and if it finds multiple options it tries to show an 
autocomplete drop down list. When this happens the mailing list dialog 
disappears and only shows the autocomplete drop down list.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create 3 cards
- First: 1, Last: test, email: [e-mail]
- First, 11, Last: test, email: [e-mail]
- First, 111, Last: test, email: [e-mail]
2. Create a list and for the first entry type "1" so the autocomplete drop down 
list appears.

Actual Results: The Mailing List dialog disappears and I see the drop down list. 
After selecting a card from the drop down list the Mailing List dialog still 
does not reappear. Click onto the AB window and now it reappears.

Expected Results: The Mailing List dialog should remain visible while the 
autocomplete drop down appears.

Additional Information:
- Linux RH 7.1: ok
- Mac 10.1.3: ok
- WinXP: ok

Marking nsbeta1 because this looks bad and is confusing when the mailing list 
dialog disappears.

I don't see this on Win 2000 either.  Does this happen in the compose window, too?

This sounds like a dup of 135528 which is a more general bug.
