208308 - Mozilla Mail main window is retained in lower pain

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 194638

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Curtis Williams]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030603
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030603

Using the three pane setup with multiple mail accounts, I often keep my primary
mail account expanded, but keep the other mail accounts unexpanded.  When I
expand one of the secondary accounts, read the mail that's in it, then use the
arrow to unexpand it, the Mozilla Mail window fills the entire right pane.  I
then select the Inbox for the primary account (which is expanded) and get the
three-pane mode back, but the lower pane on the right side retains whatever text
from the Mozilla Mail window was there.  Selecting a message from the upper
right pane will then clear the lower pane and display the text.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Expand primary mail account with arrow to left of account name
2. Expand a second mail account with arrow to left of second account name
3. Select the inbox for the second account and read a message
4. Use the arrow to the left of the second mail account to unexpand it
5. Select inbox for primary mail account

Actual Results:  
Doing the above steps causes the lower portion of the right pane to still
contain information from the two-paned Mozilla Mail window.

Expected Results:  
The lower right hand pane should be blank until a message is selected.

I am attaching a screen capture of my window after performing the above steps.
