Build Identifier: 

Regarding the "HTML question" dialog box that pops up when you try to send a 
formatted e-mail, and provides three options for (1) plain text only (2) HTML 
only (3) both text and HTML.  You should be able to select an option by 
pressing a keyboard key such as P,H,B.  This would be much quicker than going 
for the mouse...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to send an e-mail with styled text.

Actual Results:  
You get a dialog promting for a selection of (1) plain text only (2) HTML only 
(3) both text and HTML.

Expected Results:  
You should be able to make your selection using the keyboard.  Quicker, easier.

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
