Re: [orca-list] some strange issues with thunderbird 31

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
What you are describing appears to me like the issue I tried to raise a 
while ago.
Originally I assumed this might be a mozilla / gecko issue however after 
some investigation it turns out this might be ATK related.
Please see the comments in the following bug to compare whether you are 
possibly getting similar if not the same results.
