232578 - cookie confusion in multiple tabs for different accounts in Yahoo mail

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 117222

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[John]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

In Yahoo mail I can't open seperate accounts in seperate tabs. I open one
account in the first tab then open another tab and when I go to Yahoo mail in
it, it goes to the account in the previous tab. If I tell the second tab to log
in as another user it does so successfully but when I go to the first tab and
tell it to check the inbox it tells me th login has expired.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open browser
2.  Log in to Yahoo Mail
3.  Open a second tab
4.  Sign out of first tab's account
5.  Log in as another user
6.  Open first tab
7.  Click "Check Email"
8.  Bitch because it tells you that your session has expired
9.  Log in as initial tab's account
10. Go to second tab
11. Click "Check Email"
12. Bitch because now this account has expired
13. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
Actual Results:  
See details.

Expected Results:  
Allow multiple tabs to maintain discreet logging of cookies so multiple accounts
of the same webbased email can be browsed.

Different tabs are all part of the same browsing session, and cookies are stored
per-session.... Dup (probably of a wontfix bug).
