From the browser, New->Mail Message isn't hooked up, spits out: JavaScript error: MsgNewMessage is not defined We need a way to bring up the mail compose window from the browser or the command line, since the regular mail window takes a long time to bring up and isn't usable yet. (Is there a command-line arg yet to bring up mail compose?)

should be very easy to do as we just need to load msgcompose.xul to start message composition.

I have implemented the JS function MsgNewMessage that allow use to open a new message compose window from the browser menu New->Mail Message. Starting msgcompose from a command line will require some architecture change in order to work properly. I will try to do it for M8.

FYI...Using 1999060708 builds for Win32 & Linux the first part of this bug is fixed. Can start a New Msg from the Browser menu item File|New|Mail Message. Waiting for second part to be fixed (launching New Msg from command line).

You should me able in today's build to start message compose with the following command line: apprunner -msgcompose In the same time I have add apprunner -addressbook.

OK using jul12 builds on linux rh5.2, Mac OS 8.51 and NT 4.0. Command line argument is: -compose. New Message from Browser works fine.
