457872 - Splitting of multiple mail addresses in the TO field is only done if Enter is pressed

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092416 Firefox/3.0.3
Build Identifier: 20080914

Enter some mail adresses in the TO field split with a comma, e.g. "[e-mail], [e-mail]"
Now leave the field WITHOUT pressing enter (e.g. clicking in the message body field). The addresses are not split.
If the field is left by pressing Enter, everything is fine.
This should be done when the field looses focus, I think. It took me some time to find out how to paste my text file stored mail addresses ;-).

Reproducible: Always

Confirmed on Windows XP, using the 3.0 10/2 nightly.  It behaves as expected when Tab is pressed as well, but not when the focus is moved to another part of the window using the mouse.

I'm not seeing a duplicate of this one, so marking it as NEW.

I can confirm it works with the new address fields.
