This involves Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.9+) Gecko/20020409 MS exchange server 5.5's web-based interface relies on popups and these have stopped working in the above build. Many other javascript popups are fine though. Steps to reproduce: 1) Log into an MS exchange email account via a web browser (sorry, I'm unable to provide a link) 2) Select an email. It is displayed in a pop up window. 3) In the pop up, select eg the 'Reply to' icon. What should happen: window changes to a 'reply to' window. What happens: window vanishes, not replaced by anything, cursor hangs as 'Hour glass' until it is moved. Reproducible: every time. Other info: I think builds up until 20020408 handled this and something broke for the one in question.

Please make sure you have everything enabled under Scripts & Windows preferences and can still reproduce this bug.

Thanks, it was as simple as that. With 'Preferences/Advanced/Scripts and windows/Open unrequested windows' checked, the 'bug' vanishes. Uncheck the preference, it returns, so Exchange's webmail's code here must be shaped in such a way that a 'Reply to' window there is appearing to Mozilla as unrequested. (IE simply works but offers no pop-up control, while Opera's pop-up window prefs aren't as fine grained as Mozilla's and it provides the option to refuse/accept everything)

to tech evangelism. I think there are other MS web apps that have a similar problem...

Is Exchange Webmail the same as Outlook Web Access? The description of this bug sounds similar to bug 102481: with "unrequested windows" blocked, clicking reply closes a window when Microsoft's programmers expect it to close a window and open another one.

Yes, I think 136599 is a duplicate of 102481 ... sorree! (I searched and searched too ...) Thanks Mark

Mark, thanks for the response! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 102481 ***
