Details

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.2+) Gecko/20010713
BuildID:    2001071304

The -console option on the mozilla command line causes Mozilla to ignore the
Preferences about which windows should open on startup (browser, composer,
mail), and only open the Browser. While the -browser and -mail (etc.) options
should cause the Preferences to be ignored, and do so, the -console option is
not profile-related, so it shouldn't.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit - Preferences - Appearance, "When Mozilla starts up, open" check Mozilla
Mail, uncheck others
2. Exit Mozilla, Start Mozilla without options: Mail opens on startup
3. Exit Mozilla, Start Mozilla with -console option: only Browser opens on
startup (in addition to console)

At step 3, Mail should open, not Browser.
