(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Todd Jenkins]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: 2.0.0.6 (20070728)

When Xscreensaver is activated in Gnome, manually or automatically, Thunderbird's email notification summary will popup and be displayed while the screen is locked!

It happens in 'Only One Screen Saver' Mode with various screensavers.

I don't use KDE so I don't know if it happens under KDE.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login using Gnome
2. Activate Xscreensaver
3.
Actual Results:  
email notification summary is displayed 

Expected Results:  
email notification summary should NOT be displayed while Xscreensaver is activated.

I'm running RHEL4U5 with the default themes.

I have observed this as well. Not a thunderbird bug, which surprised the heck out of me.
