Using trunk build 2000-03-31-13M15 you have to resize the New Msg window in 
order to type in the body of the message.  

1. Launch mail
2. Click New Msg (have you account set up for HTML formatting)
3. Fill in Address and subject 
4. Click or tab to Body

Result:  Cursor stays in subject until you resize the window.
Expected:  Cursor to repostion to body of message so you can start typing the 
message.

Work around- resize the New Msg window then you can type in body.
Note: Doesn't happen when in plain text window
In talking with sfraser, this is probably the same cause as

esther - want to mark a dup of the other bug?
Actually, since the problem doesn't occur in plain text, simon thinks it may not 
be the same as bug 34056.  
Happens on Mac respin too, 2000-03-31-14

I think this is a dupe of 34331 and all the other related ones.  I was confused 
though as this bug number was reported in 34331.

someone else want to check?
Asa, if anything, this is a dup of 
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34056, but keeping it open since 
sfraser thought it was strange that plain text didn't have this problem.

yup sounds the same, maybe this being a dupe of the other would help give and 
developers a better idea on tacking it down.
