Bug Description

Binary package hint: thunderbird

britta@britta-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy thunderbird
thunderbird:
  Installed: 2.0.0.24+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1
  Candidate: 2.0.0.24+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1
  Version table:
 *** 2.0.0.24+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 0
        500 http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Packages
        500 http://security.ubuntu.com karmic-security/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.0.0.23+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages

On using 'reply to', the screen that pops up does include the quoted text, but not the recipient's address. I have set up Thunderbird to automatically add a BCC address. This field is blank too. Clicking the 'to' field will not let me add the address manually, as there is no cursor.
The same things happens when I want to compose a new mail. No cursor in the 'to' field. This means I cannot send a mail.

Kind regards,
Britta

Hello Britta,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.

You made this bug report in 2010 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 541742

and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.
