291599 - Message attachment breaks display of message headers

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[walter sheets]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050423
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050423

When reading a message with an attachment, the header pane is not displayed in
the preview window at all.  Thus, there is no way to tell that the message has
an attachment.

This bug is tricky to reproduce:  see below.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Make sure 'View All Headers' is selected before reading any message.
2.Make sure the Preview Pane is showing before reading any message.
3.Make sure that the *first* message you read has an attachment.

Actual Results:  
The message appears in the Preview Pane with *no* header widget displayed, thus
the little attachment icon is not visible either.

Note that this only happens when the *first* message you read has an attachment:
otherwise the header widget appears normally, and when you go on to read a 
message with an attachment the headers are already visible as they should be.

Confirmed in 2005050305 on Windows.  Changing OS to All 
This bug did not exist in my previous build, 2005041905

Possible dupe of Bug 291476 - no headers show in Inbox message window

That bug was filed against a Moz 0421 build; my TB build of 0428 (Win2K) does 
not exhibit this bug's symptom when following the Steps To Reproduce.

Yes, this is a mozilla-only bug.  TB did/does not have the problem.
