Kent and Ron,

Thanks for your help. It turns out that it's a known bug, though it
doesn't seem to have been noticed in testing before? Also perplexing is
the fact that icedove hasn't been upgraded since October 27, but this
problem appeared in the last few days.

Anyway, the workaround from Ryder Dain in this bug report fixed the
problem:

Take care,

Reid
