When I click on an http link in a mail message, it does load the web page in a browser window, but the browser window stays behind the mail window. It should come to the top of the window Z order.

I actually already have a [pp] bug used to track that SetFocus on a webshell doesn't seem to work on the Mac. I was using that to track the fact that this doesn't work on all platforms. I suppose I could have re-opened this one but I didn't. See Bug #26325. I'm going to go reclose this one and just use 26325 if that's okay with everyone.

OK, marking this one verified since mscott marked this one resolved/fixed, rather than create a ton of mail notices by reopening and marking it a duplicate of the other. I'm on the cc list for bug #26325, so when it's fixed I'll check the mail angle.
