I have a pdf of the Javascript console error.

Note I have reverted back to 1.8.a.5 posted in November. This version does not
have this problem.

some one tell me where to insert the pdf of the Javascript console and I will
post it.

I am seeing this in trunk Tbird builds also
2005022 was fine 20050224 shows this bug.
To reproduce, use the attachments I have provided to compose an email, and send
it to yourself. Follow the instructions provided in the attachment.
I don't see anything in checkins other that bug #278534 that might cause this
regression.

There is an open bug filed that scripts and plugins have been inadvertently
enabled in Composer which is significant as attachment 177318 [details] contains both.

Can't seem to find that bug, but notice the regression range above. I thought it
might be a packaging problem resulting from bug #278534
Zip build 20050222 8016 KB total files 281 works fine
Zip build 20050224 8009 KB total files 276 fails
All zip builds since 0224 have had less than 281 included files.
