152591 - mozilla locked up when moving mail to IMAP folder and browser dialog pops up

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Rob Riggs]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0rc1) Gecko/20020425
BuildID:    1.0RC1 2002042521

I was browsing and while waiting for the page to load attempted to move some
messages from my IMAP Inbox to another IMAP folder by multi-select and
drag-and-drop action. While dragging the messages to the folder, a dialog box
appeared (all grey -- no text) and Mozilla was left in a hung state.

I have no way of knowing what dialog was being displayed. It is likely that it
was a "no response from server" type message considering the delay involved.

Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
This is a guess...
1. Attempt to load a URL that will not yield a response
2. Drag a group of messages from the IMAP inbox
3. Wait for the "no response" dialog

Actual Results:  Mozilla is non-responsive and X is left in a bad state. Focus
is held by Mozilla. Must go to virtual terminal or remote login to kill mozilla-bin.

Expected Results:  Well, um... not lock up? :-)

OK. I've duplicated the bug consistently. The dialog box that causes the problem
for me is labelled "Alert" and says "[hostname] cannot be found. Please check
the name and try again."

1. Open browser and mail windows
2. Enter a URL in the browser that will bring up the "hostname cannot be found"
alert.
3. While the browser is attempting to contact the above URL, select and drag a
message from the mail window (don't drop -- you need to be in drag mode when the
dialog pops up.)
