   Googling I found that this has been a long-standing bug in Thunderbird which   
   possibly means that this    
   is also a SeaMonkey bug? If correct, I am surprised it has not been fixed?

   I never said I was running Thunderbird at this time, I googled this issue and   
   it has been described as a bug in Thunderbird.
