Using Build 2000100604

I can't login on bugzilla.
I'm always shown a page with :

Check e-mail syntax
 
The e-mail address you entered (sconest@netscape.net) didn't match our minimal 
syntax checking for a legal email address. A legal address must contain exactly 
one '@', and at least one '.' after the @, and may not contain any commas or 
spaces.

Please click back and try again.
After testing a littel, I found it's not bugzilla fault but mozilla's.
After submitting my loginn the url was:
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?Bugzilla_login=sconest%40netscape%
A9net&Bugzilla_password=benetton&product=Browser&GoAheadAndLogIn=Login

It looks like mozilla translate the @ and . to %40 and %A9
I changed them back and now I can login.

Well I found the cause, Mozilla somehow detected that the page was encoded in
armenian characters.
And trying with a fresh install made the problem disappeared (and not
reproducible). Thus, marking invalid.

Unreproducable. Thus marking Verified.

It still occurs on 2000100920  nightly build (2000-10-09-21-Mtrunk) mozilla-
win32-talkback.
@ is encoded as %40 (that' probably ok, it's ASCII '@'), but %A9 is out of 7-
bit ASCII. Dot should be encoded as %2E.

I can see the page is viewed at Armenian charset. (There's a big dot next 
to "Armenian (Armscii-8)"it in View -> Character coding)

Resolution: INVALID → ---
Have you tried with a fresh install ?
New registry and profile ?
On my machine, doing this resolved the problem.
I was able to login fine with yesterday's trunk build on WinNT.
Status: REOPENED → ASSIGNED
marking works for me
