Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a message compose window (Ctrl+M) and wait a few seconds (bug 62452).  
Focus should now be in the to/cc field.
2. Quickly type 1<enter>2

Result: I sometimes get 12@hmc.edu, and sometimes get 1@hmc.edu and 2 on the 
next line.

Expected result: Always get 1@hmc.edu on the first line and 2 on the next line.

Note: this doesn't seem to be directly related to autocomplete, because it can 
happen even if I've already typed an @ symbol on the first line and the domain 
doesn't match any in my address book.

Similarly, I should be able to click in an empty area of the to/cc field and 
begin typing an address immediately.

I'm using Windows 2000 and RC3 and still experience bug reported in 56916 which
is marked as Verified Fixed. This bug looks like the same problem.

It's problematic if all available fields are full and they fit exactly in the
address list window. Scroll bar does not appear and no intuitive way to add more
addresses. Must position cursor in between address fields and click for new
address field to appear.

The addressing widget is going away, so this is a wontfix.
