mozillar and not using it for a while (say, couple hours), it will automatically
quit, without giving any message.

Reproducible: Always

2. Left it along without using it for several hours
3.

Actual Results:  
It will automatically quit.

Expected Results:  
fix it

I normally use a recent build on a powerbook, and I have not seen this. However, 
using a slightly older build, on Panther, on a iMac running off a firewire
drive, I have seen crashes during inactivity. I had not thought it worth 
reporting, as I thought that it was something that I was causing, but I will
see if I can find a back trace ...

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
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
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

I have not seen this recently. The report was against MAS, mind. 6 months
inactivity seems a little harsh in general, but this report is probably INVALID
(no response from reporter) or WORKSFORME (it works for most people).

No response from reporter, so resolving manually.

Feel free to reopen if you can reproduce the problem with current SeaMonkey builds.
