Description

[john russell]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050223 Firefox/1.0+

the page offered uses javascript to call mailer for each address
such as in mini mail list [i use for a different purpose though]
firefox does not finish first before spawning second mailer thus
producing locked mailbox problems.  It also does not offer the
standard security message about uncrypted addresses and text...
mozilla seems to work much better on the same page ;-]  ;-]  ;-]


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the url
2. press go button 
3. view windows taskbar to see what is running

Actual Results:  
two mailers running and a locked box. YMMV with another mailer

Expected Results:  
let user finish sending first message
then firing up mailer a second time 
for the next recipient.

highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
