93857 - Both 'To:' and 'Bcc:' options simultaneously checked in composition window

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[John Morrison]

Overview Description: 

  Both "To:" and "Bcc:" are checked when composing and email, and 
  you have set your preference to 'bcc' yourself on each email.

Steps to Reproduce: 
1) Open 'Mail/News Account Settings'
2) For one of your accounts, under 'Copies and Folders', check the 
   option to bcc yourself, the exit out of that dialog
3) Start composing a new mail message; the first entry (pre-filled 
   is 'Bcc: [e-mail]', and the second entry is a blank "To:"
4) Change the "To:" to a "Bcc:" and enter '[e-mail]', then hit return
   to go to the next field.
5) The third address line appears with 'Bcc:' and a blank entry.
6) However, click on that addressing widget: note that both 'To:' and 'Bcc:' 
   are checked. 

Actual Results: both 'To:' and 'Bcc:' are checked
Expected Results: only the 'Bcc:' should be checked

Heh, there's a wee bit of difference in the two addressing options. This
is a little bit "scary" even for an experienced user ('which one will be 
honored?'). Probably need to fix for nsenterprise.

Joe, can you check this into the trunk tonight? Then I'll do the dirty work and
take it to PDT tomorrow once we've verified that the change doesn't hurt
anything on the trunk. Thanks for the fix!
