382233 - Autosave triggers "send in UTF-8" dialogue

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 328938

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[bugzilla]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3
Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.0 (20070326)

Refer to bug #328833 - this bug was first reported TB version 1.5 (20051201) but never fixed.

When composing a message using ISO characters, upon trigger of the autosave a prompt to -send- the message using UTF-8 is opened.  This could easily prompt somebody to cancel and lose the message.

This bug should be considered major or critical as it is likely that a user's composition will be lost if he tries to avoid sending the message before he is ready.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Composed message using ISO charset
2. Wait for autosave interval

Actual Results:  
Box opens up asking if message should be sent in UTF-8 giving the appearance that Thunderbird is trying to automatically send the message.  This window will appear in mid-keystroke while composing the message or will grab focus if user is in any other application on their system.
