190832 - Animated new mail alert "shade" does not disappear

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Ian Brandt]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030125
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030125

On many occasions the animated new mail alert "shade" stays stuck in the lower
right hand corner.  Eventually it does seem to disappear, retracting little by
little with every screen refresh (I can force a refresh of that area by raising
and lowering my "auto-hide" taskbar).  This only starts to happen after serveral
minutes of hanging there though.  Clicking the link to the new message doesn't
seem to expidite things at all, nor does marking the new messages as read.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
I can't seem to figure out specific steps to cause this to happen, but it is
getting "stuck" rather frequently.

Ian Brandt, is this bug still an issue for you?  Have you upgraded to a more 
current version of Mozilla (1.3 Final or 1.4)?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.  I turned the feature off after I filed the bug, and never
looked back.  After re-enabling it a week ago in 1.4RC3 it seems to no longer be
an issue.

Thanks!

Ian
