267819 - from list on compose is very chaotic and has no account-information

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041103 Firefox/1.0RC2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041103 Firefox/1.0RC2

The from List on "compose" looks like:

<>
X-Trace <[e-mail]>
X-Trace
X-Trace
Webmaster
flirtcom.net
...

The list could be full with 10 times your name, but there are 10 different mail
adresses and you cannot see, which name is related to which mail account/mail
address, until you select one (then you see it)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Compose
2. Try to select a "From" field

Actual Results:  
You cannot see, which entry is for which account. And there are 1-3 entries for
each account (I can't determine, how it arranges that and how the different
names for each account are created (and no, it's not equal to the identities list)

Expected Results:  
put the account-name into the popdown list and have a better structure and
control, what's shown there...

Which version of TB was this symptom seen under?  Does it still occur with 
current builds?  How about if you create a new profile and add the same account 
and identities to it?

Has the list ever been properly displayed in earlier versions?
Do you have any extensions installed which might cause interference here?

I've never noticed such a display, and I have numerous identities and accounts 
defined.
