>1. Open up Outlook Express
This is the bugzilla for Mozilla.org Products and not MS applications or do you
mean some kind of Webmail Access from OE ?
If yes : Attach a testcase (cia the "create new attachment" link in this bug).

This is for Webmail access frome OE...  for example, when I check my school e-
mail and want to send a new email.  I always have to use IE b/c I don't always 
know the instructors e-mail, and with IE, you can click the To button to 
search e-mail addresses.

Then we need a public testcase (for example saved page etc.).
But OWA is known the be broken because MS is using IE propertiery stuff.

This bug was reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.3 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME
