I looked into this a little bit and it appears to be a toolkit problem with boxes. We've had a couple bugs like this before and Eric usually gets them. But Eric is on vacation I think so I'll re-assign it to trudelle. If you resize the message pane they suddently show up again. toolkit team: Note, this bug is on Maconly...

Reproduced in today's verification build on MacOS 8.6. You don't need to send yourself any messages, the display of the From field seems to come and go randomly as you navigate, even for the same message. Timing related? mscott: why do you think this is a box bug?
Hey Peter, the problem is that the box code isn't reflowing the text widget. If you resize the window suddenly the information shows up again. Eric and I have had this bug before. It comes and goes.
This should be fixed by some other fixes Eric needs to checkin. nsbeta3-/future
