Do you have a LDAP addressbook set up in your SeaMonkey mail configuration?

This bug also exists after upgrade to Win 7 and to SM 2.26.  I object to redating this bug in June by declaring it identical to a MAC bug in June. I have been waiting 4 months with no action.

Jack: It is standard practice to consolidate bugs into a single one to keep the discussion in one place rather than distributing it over multiple reports. In this case, the symptoms are identical despite different platforms. That other bug was opened in April, not June, and has more comments and CC-list users, thus got a bit more attention than yours (likely the reason why Phil duped it in this way). This has nothing to do with "redating" anything.
