I've downloaded Firefox 0.9 at your website last week. Installed on my Win XP
Pro w/ SP1a. It always generate spam messages each time I compose email using
Squirrelmail 1.4.2 on Qmail 1.3 server (OS: Red Hat 2.1 ES).
I've already tested it using IE6 but no spam generated. Previously using Mozilla
1.7 also didn't have this problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose an email to external domain/server (local: hpj.gov.my)
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
after a while (less than 2 minutes), Qmail replies not able to send emails to
additional 4 - 6 recipients (spam recipients - normally yahoo.com.tw)

Expected Results:  
only sent the messages to intended recipients

Firefox isn't even an email client, to be able to generate any kind of email let
alone spam.
