User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

I need to open the compose window from an external program.
Up to 1.0.7 the call would be
thunderbird -compose "to=...,subject=....,attachement=..."

this is not working with version 1.5!



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
just start 
thunderbird -compose "to=[e-mail],subject=Test"

Tested on Linux and Windows (XP,2000)


Actual Results:  
The compose window opens, none of the additional informations is set.

Expected Results:  
With thunderbird version 1.0.7 all the informations where set.

In the JavaScript console the following error occures everytime i use the additional args.

Fehler: [Exception... "'Failure' when calling method: [nsICommandLineHandler::handle]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "<unknown>"  data: no]

In 1.0.7 that error does not show up.

This will be fixed in the next Tbird security release.
