Hi THere...
I'm experiencing what I would call a bug. When I click compose, and then say
change my mind not wanting to send the mail, the compost window will not close
at all. I get the "do you want to save a draft" message, I choose no, and the
compose window freaks out. The top header stays, but the rest is sort of
transparent, and the window will not close unless I close out Thunderbird all
together.
Using Thunderbird 0.9 on XP SP2.
Thanks!
Yep, I can confirm this bug, it happens to me too. I've also seen it happen
when I actually compose a message, send it and after a while there's this
shadow window hiding behind my main TB window, I call it shadow because it
only has the borders and title bar but everything inside is transparent. The
window cannot be closed either, the only way to make it go away is to close TB.
NOTE: I am using multiDesk (a multi dekstop manager), so it may be related,
but I don't see similar behavior with other applications (and I use lots of
apps), only Thunderbird seems to leave these shadow windows behind.
Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start composing a new message
2. Cancel message composition
Actual Results:
A shadow window remains that cannot be closed.
Expected Results:
Compose window should go away.
NOTE: I am using multiDesk (a multi dekstop manager), so it may be related,

It still happens in the 1.0 build 20041205
Is there anything special about closing the window to really make it go away?
