STR
1. Add LDAP server for a domain
2. Add entry for HTML domain for that domain to sendformat preferences
3. Make sure preference is set to Ask User.
4. Compose an email to someone that exists on that LDAP server for that domain.
5. Click send

Expected Result
1. Email gets sent in HTML format.

Actual Result
1. User gets prompted to what format to send it in.

Note:
The entry shows up in the LDAP directory server with disabled sendformat box set to Unknown. There is no option to set the sendformat from the LDAP directory server's GUI.
This might be an addressbook rather than composition issue. I think it was working in SM2.9 ok.
It seems like something changed in the behaviour of CheckAndPopulateRecipients http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mailnews/compose/src/nsMsgCompose.cpp#4679
LDAP only problem? No problem if local AddressBook?
Is bug 889152 or problem like that bug relevant to this bug?
Ian, can you still reproduce this problem in current version of TB?

Unfortunately I no longer have easy access to an LDAP server so I cannot test. That doesn't mean it is FIXED or WFM though.
