Target Milestone: M12
Subject line is correctly filled for me on Mac but Fwrd As Attachment don't put
the original message in the attachment list.
ok, the problem with the attachment is just a display matter. The attachment is
correctly send with the message despite you don't see it during the composition.
I have tried on Mac with POP, IMAP, NEWS and LOCAL. All give me the correct
subject. Same for Windows.
marina will be off for the next 2 days. So, I've looked at
her machie and setup.
It seems that when engage forward/as attachment the first time,
the subject header is quoted correctly, but the 2nd time on (until
Mozilla is restarted), the subject header is not quoted.

There are some problems with her setting. For example, her machine
is affectd by the startup crash problem and her Account setup
does not seem to work well, i.e. I'm not able to save any changes
because the OK button does nothing when it's clicked.
She is using an older "jsj3250.dll" from 11/11/99 build as a
workaround for the startup crash problem. I wonder if this is not
causing a strange effect like this one.
Target Milestone: M12 → M13
bug 20554 has been filled about the problem with the attachment that doesn't show up anymore. Move it for M13,
waiting for more info/investigation from marina about the original problem.
Marina, do you still have the problem?
I'm not able to launch today's build even though i'm using jsj3250.dll from 1111
win build. So i can not comment and we'll wait till tomorrow build.
Marina, today's Win32 build has a launching profile if you have more than one
profile.  Try with just one profile.
Marina, could you try again?
