289951 - menus disappear when mail sending window closes

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Alan Batie]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

When I send a message, it usually takes a few seconds for it actually process
and close the window.  In the mean time, I typically go back to the main window
and refile the message I replied to from the inbox to a save folder.  If I do it
by right-clicking/Move to before the message is finished sending, and am still
in the menu, when the message window closes, the menus close too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send a message; helps to have your outgoing server setup to use TLS
2. After clicking Send, go back to main window and right click to bring up a menu
3. Wait for the Send window to close

Actual Results:  
The right-click menu disappears

Expected Results:  
The other window closing should not affect the unrelated activity I'm currently
performing.

Just to be clear: the reason I said it helps to use TLS is because it slows down
the sending process and makes it more likely you'll get to the point of doing
something else before the sending window closes.

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
