I mid-mouse clicked on the news://news.mozilla.org/scc-57AD52.17385026042000@news.mozilla.org link on tinderbox and got these asserts: WEBSHELL+ = 5 assuming d&d is off for Personal Toolbar WEBSHELL+ = 6 Setting content window FOR DEBUG BUILDS ONLY: we are forcing you to see the checkin guidelines when you open a browser window Loading page specified via openDialog ###!!!

accepting. i understand what's going on here. I may have a duplicate of the news:// problems, but not the new message problem. (but they are related.)

moving to m18.

It looks like this was fixed, sspitzer do you want to mark as fixed? 9/15-05 w32 talkback Entering news://news.mozilla.org/scc-57AD52.17385026042000@news.mozilla.org worked File>New>Message gave me the account wizard [I think this bug should be just about this] news://news.mozilla.org:119/netscape.public.mozilla.xpcom did not seem to work [i think this is probably in some other bug]

Seth: I think you can mark this bug as fixed. Unless you want to do more cleanup. New message spawns the account wizard [although it seems the logic is a bit too reckless] <output> ComposeLoad from XUL attempt to UpgradePrefs. If that fails, open the account wizard.

clearing milestone, m17 and m18 are meaningless now. these need to be triages along with the rest.

sorry for the spam. making bugzilla reflect reality as I'm not working on these bugs. filter on FOOBARCHEESE to remove these in bulk.

Filter on "Nobody_NScomTLD_20080620"

jcranmer, -> News, or can this be resolved somehow?

While the specific assertions are no longer there, the URIs still fail, although with NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS warnings.

This was fixed by one of the patches in bug 226890, note that it has its own test (test_bug34765.js).
