Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 69528

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[bryanck]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010801
BuildID:    2001080110

If I try to drag and drop 2 files into the attachment area of a new message,
Mozilla hangs and I have to kill it using the task manager.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new message.
2. Open up Windows Explorer and select 2 files (mine were both around 10k in size).
3. Drag these files to the "attachment" area of the new message window.
4. The first file appears in the attachment list, but then Mozilla appears to
hang, and I have to kill it with the Windows task manager.

Actual Results:  Mozilla hangs and has to be killed.

Expected Results:  Both files should appear in the attachment list.

Marking these all WORKSFORME sorry about lack of response but were very
overloaded here. Only reopen the bug if you can reproduce with the following steps:

1) Download the latest nightly (or 0.9.6 which should be out RSN)
2) Create a new profile
3) test the bug again

If it still occurs go ahead and reopen the bug. Again sorry about no response
were quite overloaded here and understaffed.

With 0.9.6, when I try to drag multiple files to attachments, it does not crash
but only one of the files is added.

I just noticed bug 69528 which deals with dragging multiple files to be attached.
