174781 - Reply first char /newline weirdness in mesg body

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 174712

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Jon Granrose]

This is a fun one.

In today's (2002101604) win32 build on win98, when you reply to a message two
things happen:

- if you type enter as the first character in the message body, nothing happens
- you would expect the cursor to go down a line.
- any other character you type as the first character in the message body is
turned into a newline.  The cursor moves down, but the character is not displayed.

Once you enter the first non-newline character, the message body window works as
expected.

I expect the cursor to move when I hit enter, and for it not to eat the first
character I enter.  This has been a regression since 10/11 at least.
