Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 213212

(Thunderbird :: Address Book, defect)

It is unclear to me whether this bug is part of the composer component or the
address book component, but since it originates in the address book component
that is how it is listed.  After opening the contacts sidebar in a new message
compose window and clicking the up or down scroll button several times in rapid
succession, the currently selected contact is added to the message recipiants
field.  If this process is repeated, then the same selected recipiant will
continue to be added.  When attempting to delete the incorrectly added
recipiants, the recipiants field becomes unresponsive.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new mail message window.
2. Open the address book sidebar by clicking the "Contacts" toolbar button.
3. Click the down scroll arrow many times in rapid succession.  Note the
mysteriously added recipiants.
4. Select the recipiants field and try to delete the incorrectly added
recipiants.  Note the resulting unresponsiveness in that field.

Actual Results:  
Recipiants incorrectly added and unresponsiveness in the recipiants field.

Expected Results:  
Not added the extra recipiants, and not had unresponsiveness in the recipiants
field.

I'm running WinXP Pro on a 650Mhz Athelon with 512 MB of RAM.
