Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 282645

(SeaMonkey :: Autocomplete, defect)

Description

[Luis B. Almeida]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050217

When I open a mail composer window, the first address line is a BCC: to myself.
The second line is a To:, by default, and if I start typing an address there
autocomplete works ok. If I then hit Return to enter a second address in a new
line, autocomplete doesn't work on that new line, or on any lines beyond that one.

This problem only appeared in version 1.8b.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a mail composer window. Bcc: is shown in the first address line and To:
in the second.
2. Enter an address in the second line, which shows To:. Autocomplete works
normally.
3. Hit Return and enter an address in the third address line. Autocomplete
doesn't work on that line, or on any line beyond that.

Actual Results:  
Autocomplete doesn't work on the second, third, ... address lines that I enter.

Expected Results:  
Autocomplete should work in all address lines.

This bug only appeared in version 1.8b. Versions 1.8ax worked ok.

Confirming the bug, not only in Windows as previous report, but MacOS X also.

Confirming it appeared in 1.8b1, was not present in 1.8alpha6.
