139548 - Messenger window hangs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 121583

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Charles Rosendahl]

Build:  2002042209 Trunk

The messenger window does not respond after coming up in a newly created
profile.  Some type of race condition.  Note that the other profiles in the
attachment work.  The profile in question is ST&ST2-MultiMailAccnts.

Win2k Professional, SP2

To Reproduce:
- Unzip the profile directory into Documents and settings\<xxx>\Application Data
- Open the client.
- Open Messenger

If you can't reproduce, just close the bug.  I reproduced it on a lab machine
using the above profile that I copied over.

Raising to blocker.  My client goes into a memory spin, the splash screen
bounces up and down in the messenger, and eventually there is no response from
the client.

Forget the prefs attachments.  The problem (on my system anyhow) is reproduced
as follows:

Delete the localstore.rdf file in the user specific profile directory to start
anew.  Resize the mail messenger window a few times.  Eventually the scroll bars
disappear and the message viewer window begins to 'bounce'.

I think it is just a race condition that I seem to be hitting.  No one else can
reproduce this, so I am closing it out.
