Right click on user body on a new mail will yeild the whole body being selected.

This system is not setup, which is why we are talking in 640x480. Video is of the i810 veriety, I could fully give the specs if needed. More importanly I am using Gentoo and Thunderbird 1.5.0.2. Is this too old for this bug to be pertinent? I can check for this in other configurations if you like.

All body text is selected
