User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021110
Build Identifier: Mozilla 1.3b

In 1.3b when in mail account of Yahoo! Mail and subsequently use Compose to
compose message and then Send, nothing gets send but Yahoo! shows an empty form
again of Compose.
Did not happen in 1.3a. It is a pain because you got to go through all the
pasting etc. again, but I have no idea why it happens and it does not happen all
the time. Neither do I know why it happens when it happens.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.sign into mail account of Yahoo! Mail
2.select Compose
3.compose message, using paste.
4.select Send

Actual Results:  
Nothing gets sent but the Compose form shows an empty default compose form.

Expected Results:  
A message should show "Message sent".

This has been noted in the netscape.public.general newsgroup. It occurs on
moz.1.3a/b phoenix latest nightly and Galeon (Debian Woody) It does not happen
with IE. The prob. can be avoided if you turn javascript off. Galeon does that
the easiest. Latest phoenix can't turn of js. I'm closing the bug as invalid.

I am opening the bug again, because this problem does not exist in Opera 6.11

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177426 says that it's related to js
reading cookies. My preferences have enabled all cookies. js is enabled in
navigator. Problem still occurs.

After entering the Compose page of Yahoo! Mail, I could not return to the Inbox
without exiting the browser.  I did sign out of all services, but upon signing
in, I was returned to the Compose page.

This happens to me, as well. It's 100% reproducible. I must close out of all
Mozilla windows before I can re-enter my inbox in Yahoo! Mail. I am using 1.4a
on Windows XP SP1 with Sun's Java JRE 1.4.1_02 and Macromedia Flash 6.0.79 as
plugins.

I have updated to the latest (as of today) nightly build: 2003042204.

This bug appears to be fixed. I'll keep my eye on it over the next few builds.
Can someone verify this for me? Asa? Hugo?
