Re: [orca-list] problems to reply some messages in thunderbird

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Hey José.

> From the traceback, my guess is that some accessible on the
Thunderbird/Gecko side has been destroyed during Orca's query. I'm
seeing other instances where the act of moving the caret into an
accessible seems to be causing Gecko to trigger the destruction of that
accessible. Gecko shouldn't do that, but I need some reliable test cases
in order to file the needed bug(s) against Gecko and to see about
dancing around the destruction in the meantime. Any chance you could
send me a message in which the problem reliably occurs?

Thanks!
