Re: [orca-list] Orca not accessing the message content area in thunderbird after viewing one message

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

Hello,
A further note to what I said yesterday. The bug seems to sort of be 
gone, however this morning when I started my email (first thing after 
the system booted) I was seeing this bug in the try build. I went to 
reply to this message (I had the reply window open), but as orca wasn't 
accessing that I decided to restart orca and I thought just check 
whether the bug is still present and this time it was not observed.

I'll see if I can spot a pattern to when this bug is observed with the 
try build.
