137019 - Mail window becomes invisible after a while

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 136874

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Justin Turner Arthur]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.9+)
Gecko/20020410
BuildID:    2002041003

Well, this problem seems to happen after a little while of using win32 mozilla
build 2002041003 (not too sure if it's in other builds, seems like a fairly new
problem). The Mail and Newgroups window will dissapear after having had it open
for a while. It still seems to somewhat exist though because when I click on the
bottom-left mail button, the focus changes from the browser to nothing (or so it
seems). Another reason I think that the window still somewhat exists is the fact
that whenever I alt-tab after the dissapearance there is an extra mozilla icon;
when clicked the focus also seems to be on nothing. And here's yet another
reason: after I exit the browser, there's still some part of mozilla that is
hanging around even though there is no taskbar icon for a mozilla window; I'll
double click on my mozilla shortcut and it will take me directly to the browser
without popping up the profile manager. If I look in the windows task manager
after exiting the browser, I see an instance of mozilla.exe in the processes
tab. After killing the process, the profile manager will come up upon execution
of mozilla and the mail and newsgroups will work again for a little bit.

Thanks, Justin
