(Keywords: hang)
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021029 Phoenix/0.4 Build Identifier: When I drag&drop a mail (left mousebutton still pressed down) and an alert-box appears at the same time (e.g. couldn't connect to mailserver xy) it is unable to either drop the mail to a folder or acknoledge the alert box. The alert box was highlighted but nothing happened if I click "ok" and I was also unable to click anything else. I also tried to keep the left mousebutton down and be sure I release it about a folder before I try to clock the aler message but still the same. I was forced to kill Thunderbird via taskmanager. The dragged mail was still in the old folder after a restart. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. configure an account that tries to poll a non-existing POP3 server. This will generate an alert every time Thunderbird starts (a few seconds delayed) 2. stop and restart Thunderbird 3. drag a mail and keep holding the mouse button before the alert message appears Actual Results: Thunderbird "hangs", unable to click anything. Expected Results: Either cancel the drag&drop and display the alert or delay the alert until the drag&drop is finished (left mousebutton released). Vanilla Thunderbird 1.0
In such a situation try to hit the ESC key to break the hang. Mouse should work after that. I would say this is a duplicate of Bug 100180.

Yes, looks like bug #100180. Hitting "Esc" broke the hang. Thx for the fast response. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 100180 ***
