Apologies for posting to the Dev list, but I struck out in the user
forums and Mac newsgroups. Thought someone here might be willing to
provide some insight or let me know if this is a bug.
Concerns 10.2.8, all security updates applied, pretty much a plain
vanilla system (17" iMac, G4800), 768 MB RAM.
This has happened only twice, but it's odd. I open an e-mail message in
Mail. The message is plain text and has no attachments. The message is
from a known e-mail address, a friend on a Linux system. I open the
message and the system starts beeping at me. If I close the message, it
reopens again. The Mail window expands to fill the screen. I can only
stop this behavior by closing Mail and closing Safari. This behavior
reminds me of those Web sites that try to capture the user's attention
by refusing to shut browser windows or expanding them to fill the
screen. However, there was no HTML in the e-mail (in fact I have Mail
set to use plain text in incoming and outgoing messages). Afterward,
Mail reverts to normal behavior. Is this a Mail bug? Is it somehow
related to its interaction with Safari?
FYI: System is behind a router that does NAT translation and the OS X
firewall is on.
