361172 - Composer in text mode wrongly behaves for non-text characters

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 328938

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Arkady Belousov]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; ru) Opera 9.02
Build Identifier: http://mozilla.mirrors.tds.net/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/1.5.0.8/win32/ru/Thunderbird%20Setup%201.5.0.8.exe

     Tools / Account options / Composing / [ ] Compose in HTML - with this option, when I write (new or reply) letter in Composer, and this letter contains characters, not existing in target code page (Tools / Options / Display / tab Fonts / Encoding / Output encoding ?), then Composer periodically asks (each 1-5 min?) "Send in UTF-8 / Cancel / Send as-is". This is first bug: this question should appear only once, when I press Send button (or ^Enter hotkey).

     The more so, if I press Esc, then cursor in Composer window is disapper (until I switch from its window to other window and then return back).

PS: As I understand, 1-5 min period relates to Tools / Options / Composing / tab Main / [x] Automatically save letters each [5] min.

Reproducible: Always
