Description mbylander 2009-05-14 09:07:35 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When I get an email with an animated GIF, the display constantly reverts to the top of the message, so that I can't read the message at all. (While such messages are seldom worth reading, the bug should still be fixed...)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Receive a long message with an animated gif embedded toward the end
2. Try to read it
3. 


Actual results:
The cursor constantly springs to the beginning of the message, so that you cannot effectively scroll down.

Expected results:
Be able to read the message.

Does this happen every time?
As far as I can tell.
