301297 - selecting/switching "send from" account in compose window not possible

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[danbrown_97]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: 

I have 2 IMAP accounts - both with the same IMAP server, but each uses a
different SMTP server.

Both are listed in the "From" drop-down, so I should be able to select which
account (and therefore, which SMTP server) to use when sending.  However, when I
mouse over the one which is not currently selected, they switch order - the
currently selected one follows my mouse - so I cannot select the other account.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make 2 accounts
2. Open compose window
3. Try to select 2nd account

Actual Results:  
Order of accounts switches such that it is impossible to select any but the
default account.

Expected Results:  
Order of items in dropdown should have remained the same so that I could select
the alternate account.

Any extensions installed?  If so, do you see the same symptom when running TB in 
safe mode?

I deleted the Enigmail extension which seemed to have no effect.

I have not been able to reproduce this bug lately.  I will try some things to
see what conditions are required for a repro.
