When opening 2 different mail account from the same provder, I have tried
hotmail,com and mail.com, cannot maintain both accounts open at the same time.
If login to one account the open a new page, or new tab and log into second
account, when you return to  the first account and check for mail it becomes the
second account and you cannot access the mail from the first account. This will
become clear when you  try the test case I have provided below. It happens if
the password are the same or if they are different. I cannot reproduce this case
in Internet Explorer. I have tried it on both win98 and WinXP home with the same
results. This may be related to bug #16137 and I appologize if it is a duplicate.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
You can follow the steps below exactly the email addresses and passwords exist
and are correct.

1. got http://www.hotmail.com
2. log in as moztest1 password mailmail
3. open a new page or new tab (results will be the same)
4. goto http://www.hotmail.com
5. log in as moztest2 password mailold
6. Check for new messages on account moztest2 (results are the same if you check  
   for messages on moztest1 first also)
7. Switch back to page or tab of moztest1 and check for new messages

Actual Results:  
After you check for messages on moztest2 and switch back to moztest1 when you
check for messages it instantly become logged in as moztest2. If you try to read
 old messages from moztest1 before checking for new messages you get an error
saying message doesn't exist and it bcomes logged in as moztest2. Things work
exactly the same if you do it in reverse.

Expected Results:  
You should be able to check for new messages and read old messages from both
accounts. This is possible with Internet Explorer 6.0

Default Theme was used, happens in Firefox 1.0 also. No errors are reported.
I am not sure how to classify this bug, but it seems to me thar it may indicate
a major flaw in data submission and persistance.
