250026 - Print failure: Print an email hangs with message "preparing..."

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Printing, defect)

Description

[Graham Leggett]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040623
Build Identifier: Mozilla v1.7

- Open Mailnews, and select an email message.
- Select "Print", and "print" again from the printer dialog that Windows gives you.

The print attempt hangs forever with the message "preparing...".

The same problem occurs with print preview.

It is therefore impossible to print email using Mozilla v1.7.

The same problem is not evident in Mozilla v1.7 for MacOSX.


Reproducible: Always

is this specific to printing or previewing from mailnews?
It all works from the browser?

I encountered the problem with:

- Printing from mailnews
- Previewing from mailnews

Haven't tried it anywhere else, will try and get back to you.
