 The scroll button in the Messenger thread pane does not give feedback as you 
move the wheel on the intellimouse using intellimouse software v2.2d.  The

3) Select a message thread
   A message loads in the message pane
4) Use the wheel on your mouse to scroll up and down.
   Notice that the message thread scroll but the scroll button on the scroll bar 
doesn't.

Actual Results: 
 The list of messages scrolls as you move the mouse but the scroll button 
remains stationary.
 
Expected Results: 
 You should see the scroll button move on the scroll bar as you use the wheel to 
scroll through the list of messages

Additional Information:
 The intellimouse software that I was initially installed was 2.2d.  

* If I upgrade to intellimouse software version 3.1a, the problem goes away. :-)

Apparently the wheel is now working without the Intellimouse driver loaded (the
MS Intellipoint driver is now v4.1) in Mozilla 1.3 on Windows 2000.
Tested on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312

I don't know for Win NT, but on Win 2k this bug is closed.

For the record, I've filled bug 203168 about the 3rd mouse button emulation
however, which is different.
