206461 - If Mozilla is open it does not open another window using the current profile

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 122698

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Dennis Przybyla]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425

If I am using an external applicatin and click on a link which opens it in
Mozilla it brings up a dialog window asking me to select a profile. I already
have Mozilla open and it will not let me use the same profile. Mozilla should
open a link from another application using the profile already open.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Mozilla
2.In another app (ie Ximian Evolution) click on a web link
3.

Actual Results:  
A dialog box appears asking for which profile to use

Expected Results:  
Open Mozilla using the same profile that is already being used

I am not sure if this is a Mozilla bug if you can already do this successfully.
It may just be the application I am using is not opening Mozilla correctly. Any
thoughts?
