Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Launch Mozilla 2.Enter my Software Security password for the Mail window 3. Actual Results: there is a new email with no subject, no sender and no message body, dated 12/31/69 at 7:00 AM. It is not forwardable, not deleteable, and a worry for me because it has virus (worm) like characteristics.. Expected Results: not shown this same email with no subject, sender or body
Which virus/worm like characteristics does it have? I think this is a whole lot more innocent - a plain bug in mozilla mailnews: Similar phenomena is mentioned in bug 32216 / bug 73565. A "blank" message like you mention can also have same origin as bug 115316. To delete it you could try "hack" the Inbox and add a proper header if you can locate where the bogus entry is. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 32216 ***
