Details

From Bug Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.5-15 i586) BuildID: 2000021409 When i type in one email address, key enter, then key in another address and then see an error in the first address and want to correct it, i click on it to edit, and everything freezes. The last i see of output to console is "awCopyNode" (no quotes). The processes took up to 90% CPU cycles for 10 minutes but nothing happened apart from that - had to kill it. It has been like this for weeks, at least. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.See above 2. 3. Expected Results: Should let the user modify addresses after they are typed in.
Where are you typing these addresses? In the message composition window? The Address Book? The Account Wizard?
This sounds like bug #26618
i use the mail composer window when the bug strikes. The ordinary address fields there - made a snapshot located at http://home.powertech.no/rkaa/mailcomposer.gif I read bug #26618 but in my case the error did not occur when attempting to reply 3 or more addresses. It happens if i add a second address - both added manually (not retrieved from address book) - and it seems the mail app confuses what data is found in what address field. The whole output to console when the error occured was: Got focus. awNotAnEmptyArea inputElement = [object HTMLInputElement] select = [object HTMLSelectElement] select.value = addr_to aItem = [object HTMLInputElement] value = dark@c2i.net aOriginalString = dark@c2i.net aMatch = dark@c2i.net awCopyNode awInputChanged inputElement = [object HTMLInputElement] WEBSHELL+ = 11 Got focus. Got focus. awInputChanged inputElement = [object HTMLInputElement] select = [object HTMLSelectElement] select.value = addr_to aItem = [object HTMLInputElement] value = someone@another.net aOriginalString = someone@another.net aMatch = someone@another.net awCopyNode - and a struggling freeze after the last output-line there.
A second though: Wondering if this error has something to do with the fact that one can't SEND emails now? The composer window merely vanishes and is then redrawn again. No error messages - it just "boomerangs" like that all the time - impossible to send anything. Could it be that it doesn't "see" the email addresses in the adress fields at all? Or somehow doesn't manage to pass them on to whatever parts of the app that verifies it should be sendt out on the net? (i'm another newbie bug-reporter as you see ;)
Yes, now that we know it's in the compose window, it does seem like a dup of 26618 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 26618 ***
