After upgrade to 1.2 I tried to reply to messages in my in-folder. However the
from field was blank and I could not select any information. This was on any
account and any message.

I fixed it by rolling back to 1.1

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
behave the same as 1.1. i.e fill in the accounts "from" email address

I have the spell checker and GPG plug installed

I don't think there are spell checker versions made for 1.2 yet.
Try followint the installation notes. In effect: Uninstall older build, delete
the leftover directories "chrome" and "components" and install 1.2 anew.
Also make sure that the theme you use is compatible. (Right now your best bet is
modern or classic theme)

An error append during the initialization of the message compose window, that's
why you don't see an identity and probably you cannot use the compose window for
editing.
Looks like an conflict problem between either the spell checker or GPG and
Mozilla 1.2. Can you try to figure out which one cause the problem?

This sucks but I have just replaced my machine and re-installed 1.2.1 plus the
latest spell checker, all works fine. I hope to get GPG set up in the next few
days and I will post an update ASAP.

Thanks
Alec

Alec Clews, is this bug still a problem for you?  Are you up-to-date on both the 
browser and the spellchecker?

Comment 5

[Alec Clews]

This is no longer a problem -- I was up to 1.3 and it all worked fine

Reopening to fix resolution

Alec Clews, please use "WorksForMe" instead of "Fixed" unless a patch is checked
in specifically for the bug.
